Modern agriculture evolving various innovative farming techniques improves farmers' income, increase efficiency, help in conservation of natural resources such as water, soil, and energy etc.

To secure future of humankind, more emphasis is given to soil and water engineering. Soil and water will play a key role to produce sufficient food for growing population in future.  Advancement  in  the  field  of  science  and  technology  is  the  driving  force  of advance  research  in  the  field  of  Indian  Agriculture,  which  will  enable  the Indian farmers to feed the growing population. This book is written with aim to understand the engineering inputs in modern agriculture for improving production, productivity & profitability.
