Agritech pioneer Cropin has announced the launch of Cropin Cloud, the world’s first purpose-built industry cloud for agriculture. Cropin Cloud enables agri-businesses, development agencies, governments, and allied industries to accelerate digital transformation across their business value chain. It is an integrated platform of applications for digitisation, clean and contextual data pipelines for enhanced decision-making based on data analytics, and globally proven crop-specific, crop and geography-agnostic machine learning models. It aims to advance technology adoption to solve real-world agricultural problems and deliver value to every stakeholder in the food value chain, from the farmer and agribusinesses to the consumer.
With this launch, Cropin will help agri-food and allied businesses to manage the complexity of converging multiple-point technology solutions while enjoying the flexibility of choosing the right solutions based on where they are in their digital transformation journey.
Commenting on the launch, Krishna Kumar, Founder & CEO, Cropin, said, “Cropin Cloud leverages the advancements in cloud computing, earth observation, remote sensing, data and machine learning algorithms to help the agriculture sector unlock new possibilities.
