To implement any new project in the agriculture sector

To implement any new project in the agriculture sector, the public as well private sector organisations need appropriate data from the farmers' fields. Some organisations are working hard to capture the ground reality. MOHD MUSTAQUIM reports on the interventions of one such organisation - Creative Agri Solutions

It is critical for the agri-business and public as well as private sector agencies to get appropriate data from the farmers’ fields before initiating any project for the farming practices. For this, Creative Agri Solutions (CASPL), a leading consulting firm in agriculture and livestock sector, provides cutting edge research on topics of high relevance to the agriculture sector. Given the importance of the sector, as it provides employment to above 50 per cent of India’s population, the overall impact of such data can influence the society at large.
