Ashok Dalwai, CEO, National Rainfed Area Authority (NRRA), Ministry of Agriculture said that the government is in the process of setting-up a dedicated Agri Entrepreneurs Cell for start-ups and small entrepreneurs. Speaking at the 2nd edition of Conference and Awards for Innovations by Agri Start-ups 'Nurturing Agri Innovations', Dalwai said that there are numerous areas where the start-ups can help farmers reduce cost and increase income.

Dalwai also stressed upon the need to create a platform for standardized and structured data that can be accessed free of cost.
