Hey ! We are building an AI-powered tool for plant disease diagnosis and expert advice. We're in the early stages and want to make sure we're building something truly valuable for farmers.

We'd be incredibly grateful if you could spare just 2-3 minutes to answer a few quick questions. Your honest feedback is crucial for us!

1. What's your biggest challenge when it comes to keeping your crops healthy? (Pest, disease, specific crop, etc.)
2. Can you walk me through the last time you dealt with a serious plant health issue? (What happened? What did you do? How much time/money did it cost?)
3. What tools or methods do you currently use to diagnose and manage plant health problems?
4. Thinking back to that recent issue, what were you willing to spend at the time to solve it?
5. Would you be comfortable sharing photos of your crops for diagnostic purposes?

Thank you so much for your time and insights! Your feedback is incredibly helpful . We appreciate your help!

Hey Redditors,
Have you ever wondered how IoT technology is transforming agriculture? 🌱
With AI-powered harvest predictions, farmers can now optimise their yields like never before!

Why It Matters:

• Precision Agriculture: AI analyses soil moisture, temperature, and weather patterns to predict the best times for planting and harvesting.
• Increased Efficiency: Farmers can reduce waste and improve crop quality by making data-driven decisions.
• Sustainability: Better predictions lead to more sustainable farming practices, conserving resources and reducing environmental impact.

Real-World Impact: In the UK, vineyards are using our AI sensors to monitor soil conditions and predict grape harvests, ensuring the perfect wine every season. 🍇🍷 IoT Weather Data in the palm of your hand : r/viticulture

What do you think about AI in farming? Share your thoughts and let's discuss how this tech can shape the future of agriculture and help us to develop a newer and more improved solution!

What else could we monitor or control to make your already difficult and time consuming job much easier?
Would NPK sensors help you determine what nutrients you need to add to improve your crop yields?

So how can I save you money with irrigation and prevent runoff into the waterways using IoT technology in the Agribusiness space?

What would you rather do?

1. Drive around multiple fields to check on the soil conditions by hand that could take up most of your day?

2. Monitor multiple fields from your Smart Phone or PC in minutes and get up the the second notifications and alerts 🔔?

Is anyone using drone photos/videos to count livestock in the field? Not back at the office

Hello guys! I’m a software development student in Argentina wondering what do you all think about AgTech. I would love to keep studying to implement software technologies in the agriculture field.

I can’t seem to find enough resources about careers or courses. I also don’t really know anyone who actually does this for a living.

Maybe you can help me out! Thanks!

1. Why will this product of Bayer be on the market in 2027 and not earlier or later?

2. Do the enduser (farmers, distributors, Agri business etc.) really need this product? If yes, why?

What do you think?

I‘d really appreciate your thoughts about 😊

Hello fellow agriculture enthusiasts!

I’m Omkar Borade, currently pursuing a BSc in Agriculture at MPKV Rahuri University, India. I’m passionate about agriculture and always eager to connect with like-minded individuals.

I’m co-founding a platform focused on digitally empowering farmers, and I have a keen interest in agricultural innovations and startups. I would love to chat with anyone interested in:

• Study discussions and forming study groups related to agriculture
• Internship opportunities in agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry, or related fields
• Startup ideas and collaborations in the agriculture sector
• Innovative agricultural projects and technologies

Feel free to reach out if you’d like to collaborate, discuss academic topics, or explore potential business opportunities. Let’s connect and grow together!

Hi all, I am new in the agritech sector in the uk and I am looking for a few speaker for an event - anyone can make some good recommendations?

Does anybody know of a dataset that contains soil lab tests informarion. I need big data sets to aadjust and prove my models. ♥️

I want to get started on a product using NIR technology to detect moisture and other paramaters in herbs and spices, is this an emerging need in the global market?

For our High School senior engineering project my group is looking into soil testing with a focus on sustainability. The flaws, the uses, regularity, etc...

We created this survey to collect data on farmers from large operations to home growing operations. It would be greatly appreciated if you could fill out this survey and give us any information you can. Sharing this survey with others would also be fantastic.

Thank you

Hello everyone, I’m currently leading the product portfolio for two Agritech startups based out of Singapore and Brazil - we’re more focused on b2b2c model however I would really appreciate if a few agri-relevant users could test the platform with me and share more feedback. We want to make it more user friendly and more helpful for farmers as well as industries and organisations leveraging agri-data.

Hi everyone,

I've been following this community for a while and would like to let you know that we are organizing an exhibition about agriculture and greenhouse technologies. Surely some of you have heard of us. This year's edition will be held between November 20 to 23, 2024 in Antalya, Turkey.

We have over 600 countries participating this year. Companies that work in fields of greenhouse tech and equipment, seed breeding, seedlings, irrigation tech, plant protection, and fertilizers of all kind.

Hoping to see you all at the event. You may click here to register!

I know that aeroponic is an altrrnative and unique straregy for soil or simlar media less farming. It requires continuous flow of minerels and other stuff mixed water. But my question is, what if i use the same strategy but with soil? Worthy? Any thoughts?

Hi

Im trying to move away from old piecework tracking methods, and looking for a digital approach.

But there seems not to be so many options to choose from.

I tried 2 products, one didn't work well and the 2nd wasn't affordable because of additional fees. Would someone be so kind and share a good solution for tracking boxes picked by workers digitally?

[WE TURN DATA INTO CASH]

At the start of this week, it's a pleasure to our team, sharing with you a big transition we are making face Climate change for agriculture development

What problems have we solved ?

1- Farmers are not able to justify their credibility based on theirs expertise for funding.

2- It's too hard for farmers to access to research outputs for more productivity.

3- Scientists can not access feedback of theirs research applications by farmers.

4- Funding become more challenging to support research projects.

5- Banks have challenges to reconstitute and access historical data and succeed funding primary controls.

What are we doing ?

1- We help farmers to increase finance opportunities via datas due-diligence and we are making data available for food security (Research Institutions and partners).

2- We disseminate agronomical research outputs for rural farmers to help them to be more efficient facing Climate change ; and help scientists to get more funding.

3- We help financial institutions to check and select more bankable farmers.

It's the way that we use digital for Smart Climate Investment with farmers and scientists.

And you, how would you like to work with us ?

Hello all, I am considering starting a business in the agritech sector and I am curious to hear your insights. Are there specific areas within agritech where there is currently little business but potential? For the farmers among us, what do you have difficulties with in your day-to-day tasks (other than the weather, of course). I would love to hear your ideas and experiences. Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone,

I’m working on a project aimed at optimizing crop yield using data-driven insights to determine the best timing for fertilization. I’m in search of a reliable all-in-one soil health sensor that can measure key parameters like soil humidity, temperature, pH, EC, and especially NPK levels (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium) with LoRa connectivity.

This project has the potential to be commercialized, so I’m particularly interested in sensors from scalable manufacturers who can handle bulk orders if needed. Any recommendations or advice on suitable sensors and integrating them into an existing LoRa network would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
