No doubt, modern farming requires more inputs than traditional farming. These are:
- chemical fertilizers
- pesticides
- pump sets
- farm machinery
- electricity
- diesel
- HYV seeds
- water supply
Most of these inputs like fertilizers, tools, and implements are manufactured in industry. HYV seeds are developed in agriculture research laboratories. Machine industry provides various kinds of implements, irrigation pumps, and farming machinery to improve productivity and minimize farming efforts. Chemical and soil engineering-based industries provide fertilizers and pesticides to boost agriculture. Water supply is done by canals and tanks. Electricity is supplied by powerhouses.
