Introduction
For decades, agriculture has been associated with production of essential food crops. At present, agriculture is above and beyond farming and includes forestry, dairy, fruit cultivation, poultry, bee keeping, mushroom cultivation, etc. Today, processing, marketing and distribution of crops and livestock products are all acknowledged as part of agriculture. Thus, agriculture could be referred to as production, processing, promotion and distribution of agricultural products. Agriculture is the major constituent of the primary sector in India. Indian agriculture is broadly a story of success. It has done remarkably well in terms of output growth, despite weather and price shocks in the past few years. India is the first in the world in the production of milk, pulses, jute and jute-like fibers and second in production of rice, wheat, sugarcane, groundnut, vegetables, fruits and cotton. It is one of the leading producers of spices and plantation crops as well as livestock, fisheries and poultry in the world.
