In addition to the existing set of tools, this app can be equipped with more tools in future depending on the requirement of the growers and hence has been well-received overall.
Backed by three decades of scientific research, CropLogic has developed an analytical platform
that gathers data through in-built sensors in the field that are connected to the satellite communications network. The information thus collected is processed into scientific models and
studied by expert agronomists who then make predictions regarding productivity and advise crop
growers.
