Problem it Solves:
Farmers in India often struggle with problems like pest attacks, low crop yields, unpredictable weather, and inefficient use of water. Most of the farming happens in open fields where there is no way to monitor soil health, temperature, or humidity in real time. As a result, farmers end up wasting resources and getting lower productivity than they should.
Current Market Gap:
Although some high-value crops are grown in greenhouses, most of these greenhouses aren’t fully automated or connected to smart sensors. Many of the existing solutions are expensive and not practical for small or medium scale farmers. What is really missing is an affordable, easy to use system that helps farmers monitor their crops and manage care automatically in real time.
My Solution:
A Smart Greenhouse System that uses various sensors to automatically track important factors like soil moisture, pH level, temperature, humidity, light, and rainfall. The system takes care of irrigation on its own and sends instant alerts to the farmer’s phone if something’s wrong. For example, if the soil gets too dry or there’s a risk of pests. This helps farmers grow healthier crops, increase yield, save water, and avoid pests, all without having to manually check everything all the time.
Who Benefits:
This system is especially helpful for small and medium scale farmers, making their work much easier and more efficient. It saves time and effort by automating watering and giving real time updates about the soil and environment. As a result, farmers get better crop yields, use less water, and waste fewer resources. On a larger scale, it helps the environment by cutting down water waste and overuse of chemicals, and supports the community by promoting sustainable farming and a more stable food supply.
Business Model:
We sell affordable Smart Greenhouse Systems to small and medium farmers, offering easy installation and a low-cost subscription for real-time monitoring and automatic updates. This helps farmers improve crop yield while saving time and resources.
Why This Matters to Me:
I want to help farmers deal with the problems of unpredictable weather and outdated manual farming methods by introducing simple, smart technology that boosts productivity and makes farming sustainable in the long run.
