First Sentinel: Potato
FarmerZone is working on getting relevant quality data related to agriculture into the cloud, developing sentinel sites that link with farmers. The FarmerZone consortium launched the First Sentinel under the DBT Initiative for Potato Farmers in pilot sites across Himachal, Pradesh, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. The First Sentinel delivered soil data and other agricultural input data and market related information to farmers who have registered in the initial phases. The data was made available to them at the beginning of the sowing season, starting mid-September.
