Abstract
Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
is transforming the way various sectors operate, with the potential to
significantly benefit all segments of society, including agriculture. Indian
agriculture, currently facing numerous challenges, including droughts and
widespread distress, demands innovative solutions to ensure sustainable growth.
While government initiatives aim to improve the livelihoods of farmers, many of
these strategies can only achieve their full potential through the effective
integration of ICT. ICT has become an essential part of daily life, including
for farmers, and offers powerful tools to enhance productivity, access
equitable markets, and improve rural businesses. By empowering rural youth,
facilitating better market access for farmers, and enabling rural enterprises
to provide value-added services, ICT can play a critical role in extension
strategies aimed at doubling farmers' income. This paper explores the role of
ICT in these strategies, drawing insights from secondary data sources to
highlight its potential in driving agricultural development and rural
prosperity.
