Abstract - India is land of agriculture and most of the people here depend on agriculture for their livelihood. India can be among top 5 exporters of agro-commodities by shifting its focus on the agriculture and effective hand holding of the farmers. These days, one of the big challenges countered by formers is the scarcity of water. Another major dispute encountered by Indian agriculture sector is the increase in rate of formers suicide because of informal debt. According to the survey conducted in India there are 768 farmers committed suicide in 2014 and 766 in 2020 this is because of lack of fresh water for irrigation purpose, and with industrialization farmers are selling their property and they are moving towards the urban areas the only reason for this is scarcity of fresh water, with effective watering and skilled agriculture can lead to the very good yield in the farm land. So, innovations and implementations in agriculture using the available and reliable technology would reduce the cost of farming and increase the yield from agriculture and thereby we can see the prosperity in agricultural field.
