Precision Farming

The Infosys Agriculture practice offers precision farming solutions for site-specific crop management. We integrate real-time data from sensors, farm equipment, weather stations, and GPS receivers with historical farm performance records. It enables accurate analysis of field-specific variables such as soil moisture, nutrient levels, drainage, and crop yield. It supports strategic decisions – from investment in farmland and crop rotation to soil repair and surface water management. Our precision farming techniques identify risks such as water logging, soil erosion and salinity.

Our experts mitigate risks by breaking down large fields into small zones based on distinctive factors, to implement targeted crop management programs. Granular insights enable adoption of sustainable farming practices to improve crop yield and quality, while rationalizing resources. Infosys Precision Crop Management Testbed, developed in collaboration with the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC), improves crop yield and farm productivity via Internet of Things (IoT) technology and advanced analysis of near real-time field data. We combine diverse data to ensure the crop and soil receive the right additives at the right time.
