Agriculture is the backbone of India’s economy, supporting over half of the population and playing a crucial role in the global food trade. India’s diverse agricultural landscape, ranging from small farmers to large agribusinesses, drives socio-economic development but also presents challenges and growth opportunities, particularly with advancements in agricultural technology
Indian government's biofuel policy highlights the use of maize and sweet sorghum for ethanol production, aiming to increase ethanol blending in petrol. In addition, this policy aligns with global efforts to transition towards renewable energy sources and mitigate climate change. By integrating biofuels into the energy mix, India is enhancing its energy security and driving the development of sustainable agricultural practices. This approach fosters a circular economy where agricultural residues and crops are effectively utilized, further promoting environmental stewardship and economic resilience in rural communities.
With the above background in mind and keeping the importance of integrating innovative agricultural practices and sustainable energy solutions, ASSOCHAM is organizing a National Conference on "Climate Resilient Farming Solutions: Food Security to Fuel Security," scheduled on October 15, 2024, at New Delhi. Krishi Jagran is the ‘Magazine Partner’ of this national conference.
Objective of Conference:
This conference aims to bring together key stakeholders, including policymakers, industry leaders, and agricultural experts, to discuss and develop actionable strategies for advancing climate-resilient farming techniques and enhancing the role of biofuels in securing both food and fuel resources. Through a series of insightful sessions and collaborative discussions, the event will address the challenges and opportunities in scaling precision agriculture, fostering sustainability, and promoting energy security.
