Problem Statement

Despite India’s position as a global agricultural powerhouse, the sector continues to struggle with low productivity, poor market access, climate vulnerability, and data fragmentation. While Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds the transformative potential to revolutionize agriculture—enhancing yields, market linkages, and resource use—its adoption remains limited.

Key challenges include:

Low digital penetration : Only 20% of Indian farmers currently use digital tools.
Affordability and access gaps : High costs and limited last-mile delivery hinder AI scalability.
Data silos and lack of standards : Absence of foundational agri datasets and interoperability restricts AI innovation.
Risk perception : Farmers and stakeholders view AI as experimental due to lack of validation and field-tested models.
Lack of collaboration : Current pilots are fragmented, with minimal synergy across government, startups, FPOs, and academia.

The Core Problem:

“India lacks an integrated, scalable AI ecosystem for agriculture that delivers real, measurable outcomes to farmers while de-risking innovation for solution providers.”

Without a cohesive framework for validation, deployment, and collaboration, India risks missing a $65B+ opportunity to transform agriculture into a data-smart, climate-resilient, and income-secure sector.
