Abstract

Real India lies in villages. Entire village is an economic system. And villages are backbone for Indian economy. As agriculture is our important sector and contributor to the economy. Group farming will give economies of scale and overcome traditional lacunae in individual farming. India is well poised for agricultural growth. It has variety of flora and fauna and natural resources. There is a possibility of more local tribal brands becoming global brands. As the village and tribal brands are very near to the nature, they command unique preference of the consumers globally. Organic brands like Araku Emerald, though in nascent stage, have become the way of the life and have immense international potential. This paper suggests group farming with organic inputs as a tool in inclusive growth in rural India. Organic produce will fetch more revenues in international market in long run. The paper also, suggests producing and marketing slow food in rural India in the light of expected change in food consumption pattern.
