The Budget has for the first time brought focus on bringing innovation to farm level application and consolidation of the food supply chain with market commanding prices for produce. The impact will be enormous if the simultaneous efforts are also initiated to do away archaic regulatory impediments that inhibit technologies to be brought to the farm sector. Overall, a game changing intention and well framed measures to bring Indian agriculture to global competitive levels.
