The present paper in the backdrop of traditional farming focusses on the use of digital technology to transform agriculture smart and attractive. Its relevance is highlighted here particularly when young people are shunning agriculture for other professions but at the same time, demand for food is increasing because of growth in population. It is shown here that the Digital India programme with increasing use of smartphones along with available developments in science and technology can make a big boost towards modern farming, making the farmers a direct link in the farmers-consumers food value chain. A growing number of Indian startups have proved their prowess in various facets of digital agriculture. – Reproduced
