Legume Crop Growth and Yield Prediction Using AI/ML

This is like a smart weather and crop coach for farmers: it looks at past weather, soil, and crop data to guess how well legume crops will grow and how much they’ll yield, before the harvest happens.

Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Predicts legume crop growth and yield in advance so farmers, cooperatives, and agribusinesses can make better planting, input, and marketing decisions instead of relying on guesswork or late-season observations.

Value Drivers

Cost reduction from optimized use of seeds, fertilizer, and irrigationRevenue growth via better crop planning and variety selectionRisk mitigation against weather and market uncertainty through early yield forecastsOperational efficiency in regional/ national crop planning and supply chain management

Strategic Moat

Domain-specific agronomic datasets (multi-year legume trials, local weather and soil data) and calibrated crop/yield models tailored to specific regions and legume species.
