In our day to day life we plan and schedule our work whether a meeting or outing, it is the key factor for planning and optimizing work. Similarly, in agriculture we do need scheduling. As an emerging notion, it should be well equipped by the agriculturists. Water is the crucial part for agricultural production, and plays an important role in food security. There is a very limited percentage of fresh water available in the world and this fresh water is highly useful in agriculture. On the other hand, excess amount of watering to farm causes the insight of crop loss. Additionally, according to a United Nations Department of Economic and Social affairs 2015 report population is expected to increase to over 10 billion by 2050 in all over the world, and it is urgently required to maximize the crop yield production by approximately 70% by 2050 to meet the basic food security. In order to overcome the improper irrigation scheduling, a scheduled and proper irrigation process is urgently required which can be achieved by developing an optimum scientific water supply.

Still farming is done in conventional ways in most of the parts of the world. Many of them are unaware of smart and digital farming. Existing solutions such as IoT sensors, UAV are very costly, and they don’t even provide historical data. So, a large group of small, and marginal scale farmers could not afford for such solutions for their farm’s irrigation scheduling. Many remote sensing companies rely on optical/thermal remote sensing data. However, they are susceptible to clouds, and can’t provide clear information under the cloud coverage. 

We at Satyukt have developed a cutting edge technology that combines the potential evapotranspiration, satellite retrieved soil moisture data, weather forecast data, and rainfall data to provide the real-time irrigation advisory at a farm level and insight into how much water crops need to grow without water stress. 

The possible services we are providing to farmers are in the following:

1. Provide insights to optimize water usage
2. Reduces waterlogging
3. Reduces over usage of water resources
4. Detection of effective water management practices
5. Detect faulty irrigation system
6. Boost up crop yield and water-saving policies
7. Help to estimate the water demands of the crop
8. Help to determine whether to irrigate or not 
9. Determine agricultural water consumption
10. Assessing drought conditions
11. Time series analysis helps to take decisions when to irrigate and can reduce irrigation costs.
