News India Live, Digital Desk: We often hear that “Farming depends on God.” Sometimes there is too much rain and the crop gets ruined, sometimes there is drought and the hard work goes waste. But from Jharkhand Dhanbad Now this old saying is changing. The farmers here are no longer just looking towards the clouds, but are changing their destiny by taking the hand of technology.
Yes, Dhanbad, famous as coal city, is now ‘Smart Farming’ Is moving rapidly towards. The farmers here are engaged in farming Artificial Intelligence (AI) That means using modern technology. Let us know how this technology is helping the farmers.
Confirmed weather news, that too in advance
The biggest enemy in farming is uncertain weather. But with the help of AI technology, now farmers are getting accurate weather forecast. Now they do not have to wait for TV or radio. One can know on their phone whether it will rain or be sunny in the next few days.
The benefit from this is that farmers are able to take decisions about sowing, irrigation and harvesting at the right time. The damage caused by unseasonal rain has now reduced to a great extent.
‘Treatment’ is available even before the worms appear.
The second biggest problem for farmers is insects and diseases in crops (Pest Management). Many times, by the time the disease is detected, the entire crop has been damaged.
But now AI has become the ‘doctor’ of this problem. Farmers can now know which disease is affecting the plant by taking photographs of the crop with the help of modern apps and equipment. Technology not only diagnoses the disease but also suggests its correct and cheap treatment. This saves unnecessary expenditure on pesticides.
Profit increased and hard work was successful
When the crop comes home safe and sound, it is obvious that the income will also increase. The farmers of Dhanbad who are adopting this technology are saying that their costs have reduced and profits have increased. From checking the health of the soil to deciding the right amount of fertilizer, technology is standing as their friend everywhere.
This change gives rise to a new hope. If our villages and farmers also become digital and hi-tech, then the day is not far when farming will stop being called a ‘loss-making deal’. This initiative of Dhanbad is really worthy of praise.
