      <Abstract>Previous reviews addressed that there will be 170 crore people on the earth by 2050 the rise in the average income in emerging India. Hence, it will be the greatest challenge to meet food demand future. Aside from urbanization and land degradation, climate change also additional pressure on the food supply. These problems must be fundamentally changed because of their complexity and self-reinforcing nature. Crop improvement through breeding has been the main strategy for reducing poverty and increasing the food supply in India. New, improved crop varieties need to be developed for farmers to use to enhance food security. The biotechnological and non-conventional accelerated plant breeding methods that are not reliant on genetic engineering or gene editing are the main subject of this review. We focus particularly on the viability of short-term implementation by national agricultural research systems in underdeveloped nations. We contend that delaying the implementation of technology that can speed up reproduction is economically ineffective and supports the swift adoption of accelerated breeding techniques in the public sector. We recommend the employment of a technique called Rapid Generation Advance (RGA) as the most practical strategy for speed breeding in the public sector after taking into account a wide variety of considerations, including the economics of accelerated breeding.</Abstract>
