About the Summit

Haryana, one of India’s most agriculturally advanced states, stands at a critical juncture. With falling groundwater levels, climate variability, and the need for higher productivity, the state requires innovative and sustainable irrigation solutions.

The Smart Irrigation Tech Summit 2026 is designed as a high-impact platform bringing together:

  • Government leaders
  • Policy makers
  • Industry pioneers
  • Agri-tech innovators
  • Financial institutions
  • Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs)
  • Progressive farmers

The summit will showcase cutting-edge technologies, promote micro-irrigation adoption, and build strong public awareness to shape a resilient agricultural ecosystem.

This is not just an event — it is a movement toward climate-smart, water-efficient, and future-ready farming in Haryana.

Why Haryana?

Haryana contributes significantly to India’s food security and is:

  • A leading producer of wheat, rice, bajra, and sugarcane
  • A major contributor to the Central Food Grain Pool
  • A top milk-producing state (home of Murrah buffalo)
  • Rapidly expanding in horticulture and protected cultivation
  • A leader in mechanization and agro-processing

With agriculture contributing nearly 16% to the State’s GSVA, Haryana is strategically positioned to lead India’s transition to smart irrigation and precision farming.
