As India approaches the Union Budget 2026, it marks a critical midway point toward the agriculture milestones envisioned for 2030 but more so will lay the foundation for Viksit Bharat 2047. Rural and therewith growth in agriculture, is pivotal to achieving the nation’s vision. At Bayer, we believe that the sector needs stronger income and credit support for farmers, predictable trade policies, and sustained investment in agri-logistics, value addition, and post-harvest infrastructure to create scalable impact. Equally critical is accelerating innovation in seeds, crop protection, and digital, climate-smart farming to drive productivity and resilience. Aligned with the Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, these measures can position Indian agriculture as a globally competitive growth engine and a cornerstone of rural prosperity.
