Answer:
India is basically an agriculture-based country with nearly 70% of its population
dependent on agriculture. Not only does it provide livelihood to millions of people
in India but agricultural products also serve as a source of foreign exchange.
India holds an important position as a producer of sugarcane, jute, peanuts,
tea and cereals like rice, jowar and wheat. Given the importance of agriculture

put agriculture on its priority list and in all five-year plans it has received great
attention.
