Abstract

India is an agriculture country and 80% population depends on agriculture. Agriculture is a platform that requires a versatile extension because most of the occupation is related to agriculture and its by-product. Urbanisation decreases the income of agriculture and it is the main reason that young generations are not interested in agriculture and agriculture-based farm. Government has taken various initiatives to raise the income of farmers. They are migrated to the industry for better income and now it is very crucial time to think that how do we increase the income from agriculture, increases the income of farmers and motivate the young generation to move in this sector for betterment of country. This is possible when we come together for the better development of agriculture. Agriculture extension program will surely change the current scenario of farmers in terms of their income.
