1. Farmers and AI: A Story of Resilience

Take the case of Ramesh, a small-scale farmer from a village in Maharashtra. For years, he struggled with unpredictable rains and pest attacks, often leading to poor harvests and mounting debts. But in 2023, Ramesh started using an AI-powered app provided by a local agri-tech company. The app, available in Marathi, provided:

  • Weather Predictions: Alerts on when to sow and harvest crops based on rainfall data.

  • Pest Diagnosis: By clicking a photo of affected crops, Ramesh could instantly identify pests and get solutions.

  • Market Insights: Real-time updates on crop prices, ensuring he sold his produce at the best rates.

“This app has been like a teacher for me. It’s not just technology, it’s knowledge in my hands,” Ramesh says. His yields have increased by 40%, and he’s now debt-free.



The Numbers Speak:

  • According to NITI Aayog, AI adoption in Indian agriculture could increase productivity by 20–25%.

  • Over 58% of Indian households depend on agriculture, meaning such advancements directly uplift millions.
