    The document discusses issues with freshwater use in Indian agriculture and proposes smart irrigation as a solution. Key issues include 90% of freshwater being used for irrigation, 60% of agricultural land being rain-dependent, and a 50% decrease in groundwater levels over the years. Smart irrigation is presented as a way to increase crop yields by 20-45%, reduce water intake by over 30%, and save more than 27% of time per year through optimal irrigation management and soil monitoring.

    Problems Mitigation

    Background Issues to Address


    90% of the freshwater in India is used for irrigation Optimum use of freshwater in a field

    60% of the agricultural land in India are rain-dependent Irrigation management at real-time

    50% decrease in groundwater level over the years Soil quality monitoring

    But is water the only factor for


    successful yield ?
    20-45% >30% <27%

    Increase in yield Reduce in water Time saved per


    intake annum
