27

28. AI in Agri-Farm Machinery
Yield Forecasting:
 AI allows for accurate crop yield prediction, ground sensors data collection and analysis and visual
analytics of data from drones and satellites.
 Different ground sensors can collect data on soil temperature and moisture, nutrients and fertilizer
content, and more to help farmers see how their crop is developing throughout the season.
 AI provides the possibility to analyze information for several years, presenting agronomists with crop
development patterns, which can be used to predict yield and to make an impact timely if needed.
 Maintaining the “Crop Recipe: “Crop recipe” is a set of conditions under which the crop develops best.
These conditions depend on farm location, chemicals used for soil and plants treatment, and harvest time
AI-powered tools allow for finding out the best “crop recipe” for a particular crop to flourish.
28

29. Robotics in Agri-Farm Machinery
Prominent tasks of robotization in Agriculture:
 Monitoring and Forecasting
 Production costs reduction
 Activities precision and quality improvement
 Minimization of food production impact on the environment
 Increased food safety
 Ability to use agricultural robots in any weather, any time of the day
29
AI-Remote Sensing

31. Challenges in AI-Adoption in Agriculture
 Though Artificial Intelligence offers vast opportunities for application in agriculture.
 There still exists a lack of familiarity with high tech machine learning solutions in farms across most parts of
the world.
 Exposure of farming to external factors like weather conditions, soil conditions and presence of pests is quite
a lot.
 So what might look like a good solution while planning during the start of harvesting, may not be an optimal
one because of changes in external parameters.
31

32. Drones in Agriculture
As per a recent PWC Study, the total addressable market for Drone-
based solutions across the globe is $127.3 billion and for agriculture it is
at $32.4 billion.
USES:
 Managing adverse weather conditions, Productivity gains, Precision
farming and Yield management.
 Drone can be used to produce a 3-D field map of detailed terrain,
drainage, soil viability and irrigation. Nitrogen-level management
 Aerial spraying of pods with seeds and plant nutrients into the soil
provides necessary supplements for plants.
 Crop Monitoring and Health assessment

CNH Industrial completes minority investment in Monarch Tractors.
John Deere and Co. acquired Kreisel Electric.
Kubota acquired 40% shares of Escorts Agricultural Machinery India.
Mahindra acquired 33% stake in Mitsubishi Agricultural Company.

38. Challenges of Farm Machinery Sector
a) Marginal farmers believe higher technology is complex and is not his cup of tea.
b) Second deterrent is higher cost of equipment and need of high investment into variety of
equipment/size/technology for different conditions/crops.
c) Knowledge transfer both for usage and manufacturing. Importing new technology equipment is
expensive and hence need to adapt for Indian conditions.
d) The country needs to invest in design and development. Not only for adaption but also we need versatile
equipment that can be used in multiple crops like we have multi crop harvesters and tractors.
e) Field accessibility for farm machinery movement into the field is poor. Our fields are smaller and not
connected with roads and hence many a time moving machine from one field location to other is not
possible and/or efficient.
