AI has become synonymous with change. Since its advent, the world has witnessed a paradigm shift in conventional activities. Bringing new hopes and promises to all sectors, policymakers such as NITI Aayog have shown optimism on AI’s capability to transform agriculture. With COVID-19 changing the new normal to virtual, the Government’s emphasis on Digital India got a further boost during the pandemic. Precision agriculture supported by AI has the capability of predicting weather patterns, determining soil moisture, temperature, etc. In 2017, the Government signed a MoU with IBM for precision agriculture, for which a pilot is being carried out across 10 districts in India. To make agriculture Smart, a multi-pronged approach is required. The pandemic has brought to fore the Digital divide in the country. Hence, the first step should be building the right infrastructure. We can use AI to solve future pandemic-like situations in agriculture and to make farmers better equipped. Setting up of NB-IoT centers in rural areas will help with seamless internet connectivity. Educating the farmers about these technologies is another significant step. Rather than using individual drones, a single drone for some area can be used to perform autonomous agricultural tasks and the cost can be shared by the users. Supplying 24/7 electricity is a major step, as everything will be dependent on it. Tapping into solar energy for carrying out agricultural activities should be explored. Although investment heavy, these initiatives will be cost-efficient to the farmers. Nonetheless, one should not forget that agriculture subsumes disguised unemployment, and if technologies like precision agriculture takes over human labor in activities such as weeding and fertilizing, the policymakers should be wary of a rise in unemployment and come up with policies to eliminate the negative outcomes of technology-dependent agriculture.
