ABSTRACT
The economic ramifications of COVID-19 propelled agriculture into the mainstream of conversation. The impact of the labourers' reverse migration to India's hinterlands varies by location. While the well-off regions' agricultural operations are about to suffer, the hinterlands will have a surplus of labourers, creating new difficulties and opportunities. To shed light on the strategies the sector will need to adapt to recover more effectively in this setting, it is useful to revisit the role of agriculture in economic development. The effects of the lockdown on agriculture are discussed in this article. There is also a discussion of how the economic downturn may affect agriculture.
