Cloud Computing In Agriculture
Now even the earliest occupation on the planet i.e. agriculture is using the latest technologies- cloud computing. There are multiple ways in which cloud computing is helping the agriculture sector to grow.
The uptake of cloud computing in agriculture has taken some time to become popular, now many countries use this technology giant including Japan, China, the USA, East Africa, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and India. All these countries have taken a huge shift into cloud computing in the agricultural sector.
How and where do Cloud computing services help agriculture sectors?
Below are some of the uses of cloud computing services in the agriculture sector:
Crop-related information
Cloud computing services can capture all helpful information related to crops grown in the past and make decisions on what can be the best crop to grow in the next season.
Cloud can also store weather information of any region and forecast what will be the weather for specific time intervals. This information helps farmers in making decisions for harvesting crops.
Soil related Information
When one has to make crop-related decisions, soil information also plays a huge role. It offers information on the trend of soil in the past that helps in predicting future trends. For instance, clouds can detect when the soil is turning acidic/alkaline, or, what changes can be seen in nature, etc.
Monitoring Growth
The crop’s growth can be analyzed and checked at regular intervals. This helps in understanding the growth patterns and how they can be analyzed with the past growth patterns.
Farmers’ Data
One can also study, capture, and analyze the local farmer’s involvement. This data can be collected to understand what are the important agricultural areas that are essential for policymakers in framing their strategies.
Quick Solution to Problems
With the help of data, solutions can be easily found to common problems that a farmer faces frequently. Also, many experts offer solutions to specific problems with a short response time.
