Mention the obstacles to modernization of agriculture in nepal.​
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer and Explanation:

Although Nepal's economy is mainly focused on agriculture, it faces many problems and obstacles to modernizing agriculture. The first obstacle is that the country has a low investment in technology, which prevents farmers from having access to new resources aimed at agriculture, causing them to be stuck with traditional agricultural systems and elements.

These traditional agricultural systems do not allow high productivity of crops, causing crops to be low, sales to be low and economic gain to be weak, preventing farmers from investing in better production methods.

Other challenges to this modernization are the lack of investment in research, the lack of efficient transport, the lack of a good irrigation system and a limited market.
