CropLife India, the leading association of 17 R&D-driven crop science companies, urges the Government of India to use the Union Budget [2026–27] as an opportunity to further strengthen innovation and on-ground adoption in agriculture, while addressing rising farm input costs and emerging risks from climate change and pest resistance.
The association welcomes the Government’s continued focus on enhancing farmers’ income and promoting innovation across the agricultural value chain. CropLife India notes that recent GST 2.0 reforms, including lower GST on tractors and other agricultural products, demonstrate the Government’s intent to ease cost pressures and improve access to modern farm technologies.
