India–New Zealand: Agri -Tech Innovation

India–New Zealand Agri-Tech Innovation is emerging as more than a technical exchange; it is a contest over models of innovation and inclusion. At a time when agriculture faces the twin pressures of climate resilience and global market integration. The partnership can be transformational, but only if deliberate adaptation, rights-based data governance, and financing follow the technology. Without these, the result risks being one of two failures: techno-dumping (NZ solutions ill-fitted to India) or stalled scalability (India pilots remaining fragmented).

Strengthening Farmers’ Security: Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY), 2016 

In India, where over half the population depends on agriculture for their livelihood, and more than 70% of farmers are small and marginal, they remain extremely vulnerable to climate variability and crop failures (NITI Aayog, 2019). The growing threat of global warming has intensified the frequency and severity of erratic weather patterns, worsened agricultural risks, and deepened the cycle of income insecurity and indebtedness among farmers. Recognizing this urgent challenge, the Government of India launched the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) in 2016. It is a large-scale crop subsidy insurance scheme that aims to safeguard farmers. This scheme is being administered by the Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare.
