Tie-up hopes to advance digital agriculture in India
Indian agri-tech companies Satyukt and Zuari FarmHub have joined forces to advance progress in digitising agriculture.
Satyukt is harnessing satellite data, advanced technology, and machine learning, to provide satellite-based farming solutions to farmers and agricultural stakeholders to revolutionise agriculture through precision farming. Zuari FarmHub Limited (part of the Adventz Group) operates one of the largest agri-retail chains in India, offering an extensive product range including micronutrients, soil conditioners, organic products, specialty agri fluids, fertigation products (WSF) and crop care products.
Leveraging the power of an application programming interface (API) – a way for two or more computer programs or components to communicate with each other – Satyukt will provide access to farm management solutions to farmers and other stakeholders associated with Zuari FarmHub.
Dr Yukti Gill, MD, Co-Founder of Satyukt, said, “Our joint commitment to innovation means that we will be at the forefront of developing and providing affordable, actionable, and precise agricultural services. This commitment drives us for sustained agricultural growth to create enduring value for farmers.”
Madan Pandey, MD, Zuari FarmHub added, “We aim to create value for farmers and stakeholders by providing integrated agri solutions to all farm needs. By providing real time access to farm data, we will empower farmers to maximize yields, reduce wastage and hence ensure sustainable farming practices. Precision farming will create the next agricultural revolution in India that will vastly improve the profitability for Indian farmers.”
