The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) recently announced the transfer of technology under the AgriEnIcs Programme. This marks a significant step in advancing technological integration in agriculture and environmental management in India, with the aim to enhance precision in these sectors.
The AgriEnIcs Programme is a national initiative launched by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), which seeks to harness the power of cutting-edge technologies for agriculture and environmental management.
Research and Development (R&D): To drive research in the agriculture and environmental domains, with an emphasis on innovation.
Technology Deployment and Demonstration: To deploy and demonstrate new technologies that directly benefit the agriculture sector.
Commercialization: To support the commercialization of these technologies for wide-scale adoption.
Technology Translation: The programme facilitates the translation of research into practical, scalable applications that can impact the ground level, especially for farmers and rural communities.
The AgriEnIcs Programme focuses on integrating cutting-edge technologies such as:
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Internet of Things (IoT)
Machine Vision
Sensor Networks
These technologies aim to bring digital precision to agriculture, improving efficiency, resource management, and yield prediction.
The Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), based in Kolkata, serves as the nodal agency responsible for implementing the AgriEnIcs Programme.
Established in 1988 under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).
Initially set up to carry out research and development in Electronics, IT, and associated areas.
C-DAC was established in response to the denial of supercomputer imports by the USA, leading to the development of India’s first indigenously built supercomputer, Param 8000 in 1991.
C-DAC is now recognized as the apex research and development wing for high-performance computing and advanced technology in India.
The AgriEnIcs Programme represents a significant initiative in India's efforts to revolutionize agriculture and environmental management through technological innovation. By leveraging emerging technologies like AI, IoT, and sensor networks, the program promises to bring digital precision to sectors directly impacting farmers and rural communities. With C-DAC as the key implementing agency, the programme aims to drive long-term growth and sustainability in agriculture, improving outcomes for farmers and environmental health
