The subject matter of the thesis is to draw parallels with the previous attempts of the government to use technology for improving agricultural productivity and quality of life of the population dependent on it. Further, the field work conducted in different agro-economic zones of the state of Madhya Pradesh attempts to study the understanding of various stakeholders vis-a-vis blockchain application in agriculture. In doing so the key focus lies in studying the foundation of blockchain implementation in agriculture- Bank accounts, unique identity number (AADHAR) and mobile phone connectivity.
