Adoption and Usage of New Technologies in Farming: A Study Farmer's in Coimbatore City

Modern agricultural technology implementations such as precision agriculture and AI-powered monitoring but also drones and mobile applications have proven able to enhance production while reducing costs and enhancing operational efficiency. Indian agriculture remains the main economic driver while facing enduring problems which include low output and restricted market opportunities and climate-related risks. This research project investigates the current levels of new technological adoption and utilization by farmers located in Coimbatore City within the region of Tamil Nadu. The research used a survey to analyse how 110 farmers understood and felt about existing technologies and what challenges they encountered. The survey reveals that although 63.6% of farmers detect new technology their implementation faces barriers due to insufficient funding together with inadequate training facilities and inadequate infrastructure. While precision irrigation systems and weather forecasting mobile applications led all technological applications among farmers there is broad acceptance slowed by the high initial cost and insufficient digital abilities among users. Statistics show that farm size directly correlates with increased crop productivity together with better quality of production. Whether one received government farming programs was not determined by yearly income levels. Digital and automated farming solutions continue to grow in popularity though dilemmas such as insufficient technical know-how alongside insecure internet connectivity and financial shortfall act as barriers to widespread implementation. To minimize this gap the study advises authorities to enhance subside programs together with internet expansion efforts while training farmers through practical initiatives. The adoption process would likely gain even greater speed when networks get strengthened and specialized technology solutions are developed for each geographic area. Modern agricultural techniques in Coimbatore region will establish sustainable food security systems alongside economic stability through addressing these mentioned challenges.
