Global agriculture has witnessed a complete metamorphosis in recent decades with the intrusion of technologies and global participation. Agriculture remains the second-largest source of employment worldwide after the services sector. The global value-added generated by agriculture, forestry, and fishing grew by 68 percent in real terms between 2000 and 2020, reaching USD 4.7 trillion in 2020. Asia has emerged as a significant player. Asia was the main contributor to global agriculture showing an increase of 77 percent, from USD 1.2 trillion in 2000 to USD 2.9 trillion in 2020. The countries with the largest agriculture, forestry, and fishing sector in terms of value-added were China, India, and the United States of America. Global food production will continue to rise so as to cater to the burgeoning world population. In the backdrop of the world population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050, food supplies need to increase by 60 percent.
This call for increased dependence on technology-dependent agriculture as the chances of increasing land area appears to be negligible. The world will see advanced farming systems with a renewed need for Agri services, improved planting material, state-of-the-art machinery, and agro-processing equipment, good crop care and soil health products, better infrastructure, value chain models, Agri, and food businesses. India being an agriculturally significant nation will actively participate in global food and agro trade. As India’s institutions are providing global expertise and cooperation, it has become the gateway to almost two dozen Asian countries and the whole African continent. Though 8% of the world’s food is grown here, the share in global trade share in global trade remains dismal at 2%.
