Renewable Energy for Agriculture Sustainability Conservations: A Step Towards Green Revolution

Introduction

Simdega district centrally located in India thrives on agriculture, not merely as an economic pursuit but as an integral way of life for its residents. The agricultural sector holds a pivotal role in supporting the livelihoods of a significant proportion of the local population. Despite its agricultural prominence, Simdega encounters challenges akin to those experienced globally-issues of environmental degradation, resource depletion and the impacts of climate change. The system proposed in this study includes the use of solar as a primary source and grid as the secondary. The grid used in this study purchases as well as sells the energy enduring for a sustainable development in the area. The proposed system does not uses a storage unit as the grid been installed fulfils any need for the use of electricity and also a step towards reducing the capital cost for setting up the system. Jharkhand's Simdega district is home to a wide variety of year-round crops, including grains like rice, maize, and wheat; oilseed crops like Niger, tori, mustard, and groundnut; pulses like black gram, pigeon pea, chickpea and pea; vegetables like lady finger, cowpea, potato, and tomato; and fruits like papaya, mango, guava and jackfruit (Abot, 2020). There are continuous efforts to boost agricultural output through programs like artificial insemination centres for cattle to improve milk yield, despite obstacles including dependency on rain-fed agriculture and poor irrigation infrastructure as shown in Table 1. The temperature and terrain of the district enable a range of crops to be cultivated in certain locations according to the fertility and composition of the soil. In Simdega area, sustainable farming methods are essential for maximizing agricultural productivity and enhancing lives. The gases controlled using the system are carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide and sulphur dioxide.
