Abstract

Indian economy is a village economy, which is economy of cultivators, village handicraftsman, and of the agricultural labourer. Since independence, India has developed from the stage of net importing to net exporting of foodgrains, and still heavily depends upon agriculture. Green revolution in mid 1960's has the credit to change situation of Indian agriculture. But today agriculture in India is facing a crisis. This is due to the problems that Indian agriculture sector could not tackle over the time. This paper explains these problems and identifies the priority areas which should be taken under dire care to get rid of the agricultural crisis.
