📘 Book Description (English):

In Indian agriculture, the crop production system has developed over the years with innovative changes, including the introduction of manmade factors in combination with natural resources to improve productivity and meet food demands. These manmade factors include the manipulation of tillage methods, timing of sowing, selection of crops and varieties, and more recently, the use of high-yielding varieties, nutrient management, water use, weed management, and resource conservation technologies.

This book will help achieve a holistic understanding of current crop production trends, which are essential for increasing farmers' income and ensuring sustainability in the agricultural system. It serves as a valuable resource for students, educators, and field officers committed to the goal of increasing food availability for the hungry millions.
