Abstract India is an agricultural-based country, where more than half of the population is engaged in farming activities, contributing to the country's GDP. However, India's agricultural sector faces several challenges that have impeded its growth and development Indian farmer community is comprised mainly of small and marginal farmers who majorly face all the above challenges in agriculture. Farmers face a lot of problems in agriculture right from nature’s activities to man-made activities including climate change, soil erosion, biodiversity loss, water resource depletion, lack of capital, labour and other inputs etc. Major cause of these problems is mainly due to lack of proper awareness, less adoption of modern technologies, lack of capital or gap between farmers and government institutions. These problems cannot be fully solved but can be mitigated to some extent by following wise agricultural practices, sustainable use of resources and bridging the gap between rural farmers, government and financial institutions. In all, these are just some of the problems faced by farmers. All of the issues, as well as their solutions are connected. For one, more investment in agriculture can increase infrastructure spending, the purchase of manures, and fertiliser, using modern farming equipment to propel agricultural yields and processes into the 21st century.
