I have been here in India for the last four years.

And I feel like India has progressed in terms of technology at an astonishing scale. Even though these differences cannot be seen on a large scale, there is a glimpse of changes in every sector.

I know I sound different in the opening and the second sentence. But believe me, I have witnessed it. The number of people has internet access, the number of people who have access to high-end technology says the progress this country has made.

India is well known for the farming sector. The technology impact in that sector is great. Farmers have benefited from high pedigree crops. Technology has helped the researchers to develop crops with better decease-resistance and better lifetime.
