4. Key Pain Areas in Farm to Fork
Yield
On an Average Indian Yields for almost all food production lags behind world averages
Water
India is one of the lowest per capita natural water resource
Farm Gate to Fork
Long supply chain with price escalations with low value addition
Power
Tyranny and undependability of Electric Power
Quality of Production
Too much low quality and low grade production
Production Planning
Excess planting or deficit planting resulting in huge price variance

Yield
On an Average Indian Yields for almost all food production lags behind world averages
Solutions
Controlled environment agriculture with ideal environment management
Automated equipment for open field cultivation to improve plant environment
Seed breeding for higher resilience and outcomes
A February 2011 article in Science Illustrated states, “In commercial agriculture, CEA can increase efficiency, reduce pests and diseases, and save resources. … Replicating a conventional farm with computers, Technology is expensive but proves cost-efficient in the long run by producing up to 20 times as much high-end, pesticide-free produce as a similar-size plot of soil.
