Krishi-Decision Support System (DSS), will share real-time data-driven insights on weather patterns, soil conditions, crop health, crop acreage, and advisories
with all stakeholders such as farmers, experts, and policymakers
The Union Agriculture Ministry launched the digital geo-spatial platform
The platform provides seamless access to comprehensive data, including satellite images, weather information, reservoir storage, groundwater levels, etc.
With crop mapping and monitoring, we will be able to understand cropping patterns by analysing parcel-level crop maps over different years.
This helps in understanding crop rotation practices and promotes sustainable agriculture by encouraging the cultivation of diverse crops
The platform can also be helpful in monitoring drought
