| Abstract: | India is an agrarian country where half of its population still depends on agriculture as their primary source of income. However, despite this fact, half of the farmer's population are still fighting against poverty, harsh weather challenges and water scarcity. Viewing these problems, central government has started PM Kusum scheme (Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha Evem Utthan Mahabhiyan) to eradicate water problems from farm lands across remote areas through solar pumps. thermal electricity and fossil fuel will be a thing of past in India’s energy mix. The vision for a truly Atmanirbhar Bharat is zero-dependence on fossil fuel imports. Agriculture is the sole provider of human food. Most farm machines are driven by fossil fuels, which contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and in turn, accelerate climate change. Such environmental damage can be mitigated by the promotion of renewable resources such as solar, wind, biomass, tidal, geo-thermal, small-scale hydro, biofuels and wave-generated power. These renewable resources have a huge potential for the agriculture industry. The farmers should be encouraged by subsidies to use renewable energy technology. The concept of sustainable agriculture lies on a delicate balance of maximizing crop productivity and maintaining economic stability, while minimizing the utilization of finite natural resources and detrimental environmental impacts. In remote agricultural lands, the underground submersible solar photovoltaic water pump is economically viable and also an environmentally-friendly option as compared with a diesel generator set. If there are adverse climatic conditions for the growth of particular plants in cold climatic zones then there is need for renewable energy technology such as greenhouses for maintaining the optimum plant ambient temperature conditions for the growth of plants and vegetables. The topic explains in detail the role of Solar Energy Utilization (SEU)) for Sustainable Agriculture (SA) by connecting all aspects of agronomy with ecology, the environment, economics and societal change. |
