is a
vital
sector
in
India
contributing
to
about
30%
of
the
GDP.
It
consumes
about
80%
of
water
used
in
the
country.
Better
water
management
in
agriculture
will
go a
long
way
in
improving
our
crop
productivity
and
thereby,
the
total
output.
This
would
also
make
more
water
available
for
other
crucial
needs
like
the
domestic
and
industrial
sectors.
