Climate change is putting stress on agricultural resources with increased frequency of droughts and adverse weather effects. Consequently, significant farmland degradation and reduction in yield are occurring on a global scale. The problem is exacerbated by poor planning, unsustainable practices, and lack of accessibility to technologies to detect ag field problems and provide agronomical solutions and recommendations. Further difficulties hampering the efforts to feed a growing world population are due to COVID-19 impacts.
VAIS is developing an AI-powered precision agriculture platform called FarmGATE that utilizes sophisticated analytics, remote sensing data and a scalable cloud architecture, to transform old farming practices in Africa and the Middle East in order to help ag businesses and growers in these regions (and beyond), manage the lack of access to ag expertise and emerging water crises.
