Author : Priya Sharma and Anil Patil
Abstract
They got information by talking to the farmers, watching what they do and looking at something called Soil Health Cards. They also got information from the Indian Meteorological Department.
The people doing the study used math tools to look at the information they got. They found out that when it gets hotter, crops do not grow well. They also found out that when it rains, more crops grow better. Over the time they were studying, the crops were not growing well as they used to. In fact, they were growing 23.7 percent less. The farmers were also having problems with pests.
The study also found out that when farmers use special methods, they can grow crops better even when the weather is bad. These methods include using water in a way changing what crops they grow, using natural materials to help the soil, and taking care of pests in a smart way.
