  • In the intro, cite figure about the water usage for agriculture to highlight the excessive use of resources.
  • In the body, discuss the areas in which science and technology could help for example- research for reducing water usage, increasing yields of coarse grain crops to replace wheat and rice, genetic engineering and gene-editing technology to deal with the pests etc.
  • Conclude by mentioning the need to increase the expenditure on R&D as India spends only 0.7 to 0.8 per cent of GDP on it.
