i). Overcrowding in agriculture:- The real problem of Indian agriculture is that there are too many people who depend on agriculture. Since 1901, the proportion of people dependent on agriculture has almost remained constant i.e., 70%.

ii). Problem of inputs:- Indian agriculture suffered because of the inadequate of finance, seeds, fertilizers, marketing, transportation, etc.

iii). Size of landholding:- The average size of holding in India is very low, less than 2 hectares. Not only agricultural holding are small, but they are also fragmented. In certain parts of the country, plots of land have become so small that it is impossible to use modern machinery.
