Technological advancements in AI and ML are propelling growth in the farm management IoT industry. These innovations, including advanced sensors, drones, and connectivity solutions, offer real-time insights into crucial farm metrics like soil health, weather, and crop growth. AI, in particular, enhances these benefits by facilitating advanced data analytics, predictive modeling, and automation. For example, AI algorithms can predict crop yields, optimize irrigation, and even detect diseases early. Such technologies not only streamline farm operations but also bolster decision-making, ultimately elevating productivity and fueling market expansion.
In a notable example from December 2023, TDK Ventures and British International Investment (BII) co-led a Series A funding round of INR 100 crore (approximately USD 12 million) for Fasal, an Indian Agri-tech firm specializing in precision farming solutions. This investment was aimed at bolstering Fasal's horticulture optimization platform, which leverages patented IoT-crop intelligence to boost yields and cut operational costs for farmers.
