“Government should reduce GST on agricultural tractors, farm implements and machinery, post-harvest equipment, machinery and small capacity storage structures. It should promote grain dryers and preservation techniques to reduce post-harvest losses substantially. An institute in Agricultural Robotics and AI is required urgently to focus faster intrusion of robotics and AI in Indian Agriculture by developing capacities of our own faculty and students in this field.”
