| Abstract | Overall agricultural production in the EU15 has changed little over the past decade. Over the period 1990-92 to 2002-04 the volume of production rose by 2%, although the value of production increased by almost 30%, despite a nearly 5% reduction in the area farmed (Figures 3.31.2, 3.31.3 and 3.31.4). Agriculture accounted for around 2% of GDP and over 4% of total employment in the EU15 in 2003, but these averages mask great variation across EU member countries (Figure 3.31.1). There is also great diversity of production and farm structures in the EU agricultural sector, and that diversity has increased with the addition of 10 new member states in 2004 [1]. European agri-environmental trends highlight continuing challenges. The main source of agricultural production growth over the next 20 years is expected to arise from crop yield increases and improvements in livestock productivity, rather than any expansion in the area under cultivation or livestock numbers. Projections of EU15 wheat and coarse grains from 2007 to 2016, for example, suggest yields rising at around 1% per annum while the area cultivated is likely to be stable or slightly reduced [2]. Similarly for milk production, while cow numbers are projected to fall by nearly 1% per annum up to 2016, milk yields are expected to rise by over 0.5% annually [2]. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
