Details

Asia’s agricultural sector holds the peak position in the food pyramid for the world with 2.2 billion people in the region relying on agriculture for their livelihood. In addition to feeding mouths, it is also seen as a profitable investment producing high amount of yield in a short period of time. However, this is at the mercy of catastrophic weather conditions like severe heat, drought and floods that greatly impacts the livelihood and pockets of small-scale farmers as well as commercial farming enterprises.
