Andhra Pradesh’s Data-Driven Farming
Business Background
Agriculture in Andhra Pradesh faces persistent challenges such as rising input costs, increasing farmer indebtedness, and the unpredictability of monsoons—all of which directly impact yields and farmer livelihoods. Traditional crop monitoring methods often lacked precision, delaying interventions and limiting effective decision-making. To address these issues, a technology-driven system was introduced to modernize agricultural monitoring, strengthen resilience, and support timely decision-making.

Amnex Solution
Amnex implemented a geospatial intelligence solution integrating remote sensing, machine learning, and GIS technologies to improve crop monitoring. Using satellite-based optical and radar imagery, the system provided precise crop area estimation and timely loss assessments. A Web GIS Portal allowed real-time access to crop data, while a mobile GPS application collected ground-level information like crop type, transplantation date, and growth stage. Smart sampling for Crop Cutting Experiments (CCEs) and near real-time crop health assessments enabled fast, data-driven decisions.
