Rural areas are typically the backbone of agriculture, providing essential raw materials like grains, vegetables, fruits, and livestock, which are critical for food production, food processing industries, and related businesses. More over half of India's population depends on agriculture for their livelihood, making it as the backbone of the country's economy. Global agricultural development heavily relies on rural agriculture. However, rural agriculture in India faces numerous challenges, including low productivity, limited access to markets, and inadequate extension services. Digitalization has the potential to revolutionize rural agriculture in India through the increased productivity, lower costs, better decision-making, and higher agricultural incomes worldwide. The potential of digitalization in Indian rural agriculture is examined in this article, along with the applications of e-commerce platforms, digital extension services, and precision agriculture.
