Use of Agriculture Equipment in India
The use of agricultural equipment In India has changed the agricultural environment and improved productivity and efficiency. To simplify their operations, farmers all around the nation use modern equipment including tractors, harvesters, and irrigation systems. This equipment makes it possible to practice precision farming, which maximizes resource efficiency and reduces waste. Farmers may cultivate more regions in less time with the help of modern equipment, which also reduces labor and increases yield.

Have you ever heard of Taro or Yacon? I had the immense pleasure of illustrating these educational postcards for @utopianseedproject, (founded by @blueandyellowmakes). @utopianseedproject “explores a different model for our food system [much needed!] but is grounded in real hands-in-the earth research to support that vision.” They trial crops and varieties here in the Southeast to support diversity in food and farming. Its truly an incredible organization. @blueandyellowmakes wrote a book, The Whole Okra, and it rocked my world!! It’s now up for a James Beard Award Nomination!! Stop reading this now and go check both @utopianseedproject and @blueandyellowmakes out right now!! - - - #illustration #food #changeourfoodsystem #taro #yacon #digitalillustration #drawing #ashevillenc #828isgreat #southeastcropvarieties #cropdiversity #farming #gardening #homestead #food #okra #thewholeokra #indefenseofokra #utopianseedproject #seedsarefood #sowtrueseed https://www.instagram.com/p/CAbebANhgMB/?igshid=nkmfzd15ln9f

Researchers from @IITA_CGIAR have examined how #cropdiversity relates to household #foodsecurity and income derived from the sale of multiple crops.
The results?
The more crops the more food, #nutrition and income secure farmers are: https://t.co/P3DmCi0by8 pic.twitter.com/OjQu1UUUnG

Countries with greater #cropdiversity (esp. grains & legumes) and robust #irrigation capabilities tend to have more stable food supplies. While not increasing stability, #fertilization greatly increases yields: https://t.co/TqqyHpZrNu | #ag #foodsecurity #fertilizer
