Agriculture is the main enterprises of more than 70% of Indian population. despite of diverse climatic conditions. Almost all crops are growing extensively throughout India. Growth in agriculture in terms of increased sustainable productivity has come from a lot of research work carried out in different projects in different parts of country but there is a lack of updated and compiled information to facilitate Under-Graduate, Post-Graduate students, researchers and Progressive Farmers. This book is an artistic output of efforts of the author and has been in a simple and easy way to understand. It covers exhaustive information about RABI CROPS, Agronomy and also providing practical knowledge for B. Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture students. The book is written in a simple language and with informative, relevant information return and is supported by tables and sketches for easy understanding of the subject.

The concept of Rainbow Revolution is an integrated development of crop cultivation, horticulture, forestry, fishery, poultry, animal husbandry, and food processing industry. The concept of Smart Farming Technologies in agriculture is a step towards sustainability. India has already achieved resilience in agriculture, including the horticultural sector, through effective agricultural technology generation and is now on the threshold of a “rainbow revolution” that will ensure both household nutrition security and prosperity for its people. This book will be of immense value to the scientific community involved in teaching, research and extension activities related to strategies for achieving Rainbow Revolution for enhancing farmers’ income, food, and nutrition security. The book can also serve as a very useful reference for policymakers and practicing farmers.
