FarmBeats: Empowering Farmers with Affordable Digital Agriculture Solutions
Ranveer Chandra, Principal Researcher, Microsoft
Data-driven techniques help boost agricultural productivity by increasing yields, reducing losses and cutting down input costs. However, these techniques have seen sparse adoption owing to high costs of manual data collection and limited connectivity solutions. Our solution, called FarmBeats, an end-to-end IoT & AI platform for agriculture that enables seamless data collection from various sensors, cameras and drones. In this talk, we will describe the FarmBeats system, and also outline the AI challenges we are currently addressing for agriculture.
