building india's silicon valley bangalore by fossil tech, the service has led to an almost 25% boostlike grapes and guava. informed decision making is only one part of the solution to improve productivity but weeding out inefficiencies in the existing age—old agricultural practices is also crucial. ai—powered robots offer a solution. this one is equipped with precision cameras that scan the ground in real—time, programmed to avoid wasteful spraying. the way spraying is done in india is on an acre level. our mission is to boil that down into a plant level decision—making. just by spraying only on the plant we are seeing a 56% savings. improved rural digital connectivity and government support for agri—start—ups is part of what pushed farm innovation. but just now 2% farmers use tech in farming. there is going to be public—private partnership. india will also always be resource constrained. we possibly are pretty much constrained on finance and insurance services for the farmers, and that is where the gap needs to be filled up with al. it promises profitability but will need considerab
