DIGITIZING AGRICULTURE

Precision farming can influence a paradigm shift in India’s obsolete and aggressive farming practices to digitally transformed agricultural practices. In a developing country like India, precision farming has countless opportunities to embrace sustainable techniques, increase production, and increase farm income.

However, the obstacles are greater and more numerous, such as small and fragmented land holdings, depleting natural resources, seasonal production, climatic fluctuations, and individual spending capacity. 

In light of a burgeoning global population, India and numerous countries face a looming food security crisis. To feed an ever-growing global population, it is imperative for India to increase its crop production and crop processing techniques. By leveraging sustainable, high-tech and smart farming practices farmers can sustainably use the land with optimal resources and maximize the farm productivity and profitability.

 

 

Let’s understand how capturing farm data is adding value for agriculture stakeholders!

• Improves farming operations. Thanks to clever measurements and reports, data analysis for agriculture businesses not only enhances yields but also decreases resource usage, such as water and power
• Yield Management: Big data analytics in agriculture has already shown great results in forecasting crop production and improving crop yields
• Soil Management: Soil is also one of the primary and important factors for crop production. The available soil nutrient status and external applications of fertilizers decide the growth of crop productivity. Thanks to the advanced technologies that keep a check on different variables
• Nutrition Management: Promote sustainable agricultural land management and make decisions that are better for the planet with right dosage application of nutrients. Mapping soil health at various spatial areas help you identify which area needs precise nutritional dose further optimizing on the fertilizers costs
• Inventory Management: It is highly crucial for farmers to stay updated with the market demand and boost their production overall. Identifying the demand and keeping the stock in place plays a vital role in earning a stable income for farmer
• Procurement Planning: Now it's simple to keep track of predicted yield. Based on several agricultural data, every agribusiness unit can efficiently arrange for the purchase of food and therefore it is crucial to have an accurate forecast from time to time so that they don't run out of supply.

 

WHAT LIES AHEAD?

The ability to gather insights from data, construct algorithms, and invent new technologies continues to advance at an astounding rate. The combination of shared information, smart technology, and bold innovation can achieve incredible results for farmers and the agribusiness industry.

Proprietary solutions such as Farm Layers, a farm monitoring platform by iAvenue Labs and other Farm Management Softwares help growers to find new ways to optimise resources, land, labour and other factors. Farming has become a simpler and more lucrative industry because of these modern Farm Management platforms. The industry is slowly adopting agri-tech innovations and modernized processes to meet the challenges of feeding the world population.
