Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a result of increasing population pressure, among other reasons, a section of Indian farmers may soon have to switch over to agricultural tools used in the past. In the aftermath of natural calamities like floods, tsunamis, and earthquakes, modern farming techniques may fail completely, and there should be ready solutions to combat such situations. We must rely on traditional technology that does not depend on fossil fuel for the future. I chose "record preservation", intended it to be semi-permanently by drawing and photos, videos and texts before the tools disappear in the race for social changes.
