Abstract:

This research explores the adoption and modernization of technology in the agriculture sector, focusing on the regions of Punjab and Haryana in Northern India. The study aims to understand the impact of new technology and modernization, including production efficiency, operational efficiency, infrastructure development, and socioeconomic factors. The study uses a descriptive research design and a sample of 194 local micro-farms in Punjab and Haryana. The findings reveal that technological integration in farming practices varies, with many farmers using digital tools in their daily operations. The impact of agricultural technologies is influenced by household income, farm size, farming experience, education level, production, operational efficiencies, and infrastructure development. The recommendations include bolstering government research and development efforts to introduce modern technologies tailored to the agricultural context, fostering collaborative initiatives among farmers, and pooling resources to enhance their capacity for adopting and integrating new agricultural technologies effectively. By understanding the complex interplay between technology, socioeconomic factors, and agricultural outcomes, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of the opportunities and challenges inherent in modernizing the agricultural sector in Northern India. Through informed policy interventions and grassroots initiatives, the region can harness the transformative potential of technology to ensure sustainable agricultural development and enhance rural livelihoods.
