Real Time Web-based Data Management System For Agriculture Solutions

Project information
Objectives

To help agricultural growers make effective real- time decisions by providing them with current farm-specific information. We intend to put real-time farm location-specific weather, micro-climatic, and plant health information into the hands of the farm manager. Information such as field specific rainfall forecasts, disease pressure maps, and yield/ quality maps will help with operations and field management as well as with mitigation of risks or problems.
