Agrispective | EP 07 | Per Drop More Crop: Is India missing out with just 15–17% micro irrigation coverage?
In this episode of businessline’s Agrispective Podcast, host Subramani M R speaks with Ramesh Ramachandran, MD & CEO of Mahindra AgriSolutions and MD of Mahindra EPC Irrigation. They discuss how technology is reshaping Indian agriculture. Ramachandran highlights the impact of biotech-driven, climate-resilient seed varieties and early-duration crops that boost farmer incomes. The discussion covers IoT-enabled irrigation, automated farm workflows, and drone-based spraying. A key focus is micro-irrigation, which improves yields and water-use efficiency. Ramachandran also examines the shift to higher-value horticulture and the role of corporates in building integrated value chains and driving sustainable growth in Indian farming.
