What is Smart Agriculture?

It refers to managing farms using modern Information and communication technologies to increase the quantity and quality of products while optimizing the human labor required.

The technologies available for present-day farmers are:

1. Use of Sensors: 

  • To measure soil moisture.
  • Water required by a crop.
  • Measure luminosity required. 
  • Appropriate Humidity for Crops. 
  • Temperature management system.

2. Use of Software of  specialized software to find solutions that target specific farm types or applications of IoT platforms.

3. Mobile phones for Connectivity

4. Use of LoRa - ("long range") is a physical proprietary radio communication technique.

5. GPS and Satellite to track the location of the agricultural field.

6. Autonomous tractors and  processing facilities for higher production.

7. Application of Standalone analytics tools to combine data from multiple sources to solve complex problems.

8. Application of data pipelines for downstream solutions: A data pipeline is a set of tools and activities for moving data from one system with its method of data storage and processing to another system in which it can be stored and managed differently.

  Aquaponics: How Does it Work? Aquaponics is seen as a highly efficient farming solution that addresses these multiple farming challenges. By using less water compared to conventional farming, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers, and minimizing waste, aquaponics presents a promise for producing food without damaging our environment. What is Aquaponics? Aquaponics is a sustainable farming method that combines aquaculture (the cultivation of aquatic organisms like fish) with hydroponics (the growing of plants in nutrient-rich water without soil). This combination creates biological processes that occur in both systems to create a closed-loop environment where fish and plants thrive together. How Does Aquaponics Work? In aquaponics, the plants are grown in the grow bed, and fish are placed in the fish tank. The nutrient-rich water from the fish tank that contains fish waste is fed to the grow bed, where billions of naturally occurring beneficial bacteria break the ammonia dow...

  A Peek into OpenAI's Secret AI Garden The world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is constantly buzzing with innovation. New projects and advancements emerge at breakneck speed, pushing the boundaries of what machines can do. One such project, shrouded in secrecy, has captured the imagination of AI enthusiasts – OpenAI's "Project Strawberry." But what exactly is Project Strawberry? The Mystery Unveils: What is Project Strawberry? Project Strawberry is a code name for OpenAI's research into a new generation of AI models. Unlike existing models that excel at specific tasks like playing chess or recognizing faces, Project Strawberry aims to equip AI with advanced reasoning capabilities. This means the AI wouldn't just process information but also understand it, analyze it, and draw logical conclusions – much like a human would. Think Beyond Siri and Alexa: How Strawberry Differs Current AI models, like the ones powering virtual assistants, are impressive, but the...
