India to Implement Digital Crop Survey Using AI for Accurate Acreage Assessment



India aims to enhance its agricultural statistics system by implementing routine digital crop surveys supported by advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) across the nation. This initiative, which could be rolled out from next summer, will assist the government in developing more accurate farm production forecasts and facilitating timely implementation of suitable trade policy measures.


Traditionally, authorities rely on information provided by local officials and field surveys for crop sowing data, which have occasionally been found unreliable. State nodal officials will use a mobile application for conducting digital crop surveys, alongside relevant web applications.


The Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare seeks to establish a robust crop survey system integrating cutting-edge technologies, including visual and advanced analytics, GIS-GPS technologies, and AI/ML, to enhance the precision of sowing estimates
