India: Cropin to Launch World’s First Agri Intelligence Cloud

By Krishi Jagran

Cropin, a Bengaluru-based Agtech firm, has built the world’s first agriculture intelligence cloud (Agcloud), which can provide data generated over a decade and guide agriculture stakeholders to improve crop yield and quality, reports Krishi Jagran. “Agcloud will be formally launched next month. It can help manage 488 crops across 56 countries and 10,000 varieties,” said Cropin CEO and co-founder Krishna Kumar.

The Agcloud will contain information about farmers’ locations and the crops they grow. It includes applications that can solve a variety of agricultural problems, primarily those involving the digital transformation. Grower information can be digitized and used to run an agronomy program for crop selection and best practices for farmers to adopt.

“You can warn about diseases 15 days ahead of time and track risks like weather to keep the farmer up to date on crop quality and yield,” Kumar said.

It is a comprehensive solution, and if any enterprise wants to export food to Europe from Asia or Africa, it can provide traceability and compliance standards by constructing track interest solutions. “It has multiple applications for farmers, scientists, agronomists, managers, and senior people,” Kumar explained, “so that the entire industry can work together to solve problems.”
