"Agricultural diversification is the urgent need of India particularly in
the phase of globalisation. Globalisation has made the world very small. It
has created very competitive atmosphere in various sectors of economy. In
that context the Indian agriculture also has to face the challenges of
different types of problems today, particularly, due to the tasks led by
the globalisation."
