From plough to prosperity, India’s fields are calling its people back, and the numbers are proof that the future of Bharat is deeply rooted in its soil. The trend is unmistakable … agriculture, once considered a fading occupation, is experiencing a revival in India’s rural landscape. A recent survey has revealed a significant shift, with an increasing number of rural households returning to their agricultural roots. The All India Rural Financial Inclusion Survey for 2021-22, conducted by NABARD, paints a vibrant picture of the rural economy, showing that over half of rural households are now identified as agricultural. This marks a sharp rise from the 48% recorded just a few years ago in 2016-17, signaling a reversal of the decades-old drift away from farming.
