New Agriculture Research Project by Microsoft!

Microsoft has introduced FarmBeats; a new AI lead agriculture research project which uses cloud-based computing models to record soil temperature and moisture levels and track them.


FarmBeats also helps to enable data-driven farming in remote areas with low cost.

It's told that the research has resulted in 30% higher yield per hectare.

P.S: Do you think this would play a major role in the history of Agriculture?

Yes it would as FarmBeats’s system design that explicitly accounts for weather-related power and Internet outages has enabled six month long deployments in two US farms.
