The Union Budget 2026-2027 is bringing Artificial Intelligence into the heart of Indian agriculture, marking an important expansion as the nation continues to strengthen its digital and technology capabilities. In this new development, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman launched Bharat Vistaar, driving regional innovation initiatives, strengthening enterprise technology platforms, and enabling scalable, secure, and future-ready farming operations aligned with national business objectives.

The launch reflects the government’s focus on leveraging technology as a key enabler of operational excellence, efficiency, and innovation. Bharat Vistaar will play a critical role in integrating agri-stack portals with the ICAR research framework, enhancing digital resilience, and supporting cross-functional teams with robust technology solutions across the enterprise.

By combining AI-powered soil, crop, and weather insights, the tool is expected to enable smarter decisions and improve yields. This initiative positions the organisation to accelerate its digital journey, strengthen climate-resilient farming, and build a strong foundation for long-term growth and innovation in India.
