AB  - This study tries to explore the problems faced by Indian agriculture for food 
  security in terms of inadequate infrastructure and highly inefficient supply 
  chain in context of information technology. This study examines, the critical 
  issues at each sub-system of agriculture supply chain, starting from the input 
  to the consumer, with a view to integrating them in efficient and effective 
  manner. As proper flow of information across the chain constitutes an integral 
  part, the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in improving 
  supply chain efficiency in agriculture discussed in detail. Thus, this study 
  broadly covers some of important aspects of agriculture supply chain in India- 
  identification of issues at different levels in the supply chain, transformation 
  in the agriculture due to various supply chain interventions, the role of ICTs 
  in supply chain management and this study also covers the suggestion to improve 
  efficiency at different levels in supply chain. There is wide research gap in 
  this sector, having such potential and prospectus for overall growth there is 
  not much research in this field. The study concludes that ICT plays very important 
  role for development and contemporary issue for agriculture, therefore government 
  action must address the issue of infrastructure development to achieve the objective 
  of food security for all.
