Summary:

Particularly in Africa, India's agricultural revolution driven by renewable energy is becoming recognised globally as a paradigm for sustainable development. Through programs like PMKUSUM and the International Solar Alliance, it emphasises how solar-powered farming can improve rural livelihoods, farmer incomes, and food security. India demonstrates how renewable energy may fill up irrigation shortages, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, where irrigation coverage is far lower than in India. Better crop output, less reliance on diesel, and cheaper irrigation are all supported by the model. Millions of solar pumps have been made possible by PM-KUSUM, and more are anticipated by 2030. The goal of Mission 300 is to grow solar agriculture for power. India is establishing itself as a global leader in clean energy integration and sustainable agriculture thanks to its quick expansion of solar and renewable energy capacity.
