Abstract The Indian economy is an Agro-economy, which means its agriculture sector is heavily dependent on the cycles of production, distribution, and consumption. This sector is facing increasing pressure from factors such as climate change, resource depletion, and a growing global population. This study aimed to research the adoption of technology in small-scale farming to improve production quality, efficiency, and economic development. We examined the determinants of technology adoption among small farmers using both primary and secondary data. For primary data, we collected over 100 responses from farmers and research students. For secondary data, we analyzed various journals, articles, and research papers. Our data revealed that while most farmers are aware of Agri-tech farming through various advertisements, they do not adopt it due to a lack of knowledge and the high cost of technology. The analysis also showed that government funding programs play a vital role in supporting agricultural technology startups. These programs provide the necessary capital for developing new technologies and expanding operations. By reducing the financial risks for startups, these programs encourage innovation. The rapid advancement of precision agriculture and the rise of Agri-tech startups are transforming the global agricultural landscape, enhancing productivity, sustainability, and climate resilience.
