2017 ICT4D Conference

ICT Platform enabling Agriculture - from innovation to impact.

Agriculture continues to be a mainstay occupation for nearly 50% of the world’s rural population. It is important that innovative agronomic practices and valuable extension services be accessible to these farmers so that they can benefit from the same.

The question is how can such valuable inputs and information be made available to such a large population with location context and in a timely manner?

Our priority have been to find the right level of technology integration into Agriculture. Digitization and Data is beginning to drive innovation in many Agriculture practices, which is showing measurable results and sustainable outcomes for those involved in the agriculture value chain. And a core element enabling this is a robust ICT backbone that has been specifically designed for Agriculture applications.

The presentation will showcase the benefits of an ICT platform designed for Agriculture and how the same has been deployed in a scalable and extensible manner, towards defined objectives.

The core PURPOSE is to work towards improving the quality of life of the farming community and the sustainability of the environment – in line with the motto of ‘Invented for life’.
