As part of this collaboration, the forward-looking company is giving farmers access to Satyukt’s Sat2Farm platform for purposes like soil testing, leveraging localized weather information, estimating soil moisture, providing irrigation advisory, analyzing crop growth, among others in real-time.

The platform is backed by Satyukt’s proprietary algorithm and will provide farmers with highly personalized recommendations for crop nutrition, use of particular plant protection remedies, and everything relevant to ensure a farm’s robust health and productivity. Simply put, it will enable farmers to monitor their farms remotely and take remedial actions in real-time. The platform will be leveraging multiple factors to make this possible. These include over 100 satellite-based indices and crop variables, and tracking on-ground farm data, among others.
