No, example of case

India's area under cultivation has remained constant since the 1970s. Hence, the two ways to improve
productivity are: Yield management and irrigation

Another area which needs an urgent revamp is the supply chain. India's vegetable production increased
by 5% this fiscal year but vegetable prices have increased a lot. This bears testimony to the disarray that
exists in the current supply chain. A huge amount of produce is wasted in the procurement process due
to a lack of timely action. Inadequate storage systems further compound the waste

The nail in the coffin is the ineffective distribution system. Many states are not able to lift their allocated
quotas due to inadequate storage facilities and instant ad-hoc cash requirements. W

Private sector participation through contract farming land leasing arrangements to allow accelerated
technology transfer, capital inflow and assured market for crop production, especially of oilseeds, cotton
and horticultural crops)

contract farming in wheat is being practised in Madhya Pradesh by Hindustan Lever Ltd (HLL), Rallis and
ICICI. Under the system, Rallis supplies agri-inputs and know-how, and ICICI finances (farm credit) the
farmers. HLL, the processing company, which requires the farm produce as raw material for its food
processing industry, provides the buyback arrangement for the farm output. In this arrangement,
farmers benefit through the assured market for their produce in addition to timely, adequate and
quality input supply including free technical know-how; HLL benefits through supply-chain efficiency;
while Rallis and ICICI benefit through assured clientele for their products and services. The consortium is
also planning to rope in other specialist partners including insurance, equipment and storage companies

Agriculture stimulates ―structural transformation‖—the process whereby resources move from low
productivity sectors to higher productivity sectors

Increased spending in agricultural research and farm extension practices to improve yield and
production –

Better supply chain management in both procurement and distribution cycles through improvements in
public distribution systems
