Advancing Climate Resilient Technologies through Innovation
Empowering Farmers Through Technology
To promote sustainable agriculture and empower farmers with actionable insights, advanced soil testing machines have been deployed across 6 Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs) in 3 districts of Himachal Pradesh.
This initiative supports climate-resilient farming by enabling data-driven decisions directly at the farm level.
Enhanced productivity and resilience
By making soil diagnostics accessible at the community level, this intervention is transforming how farmers approach orchard nutrition and crop planning. It is particularly beneficial in high-value horticulture, where soil health plays a direct role in productivity and marketability.
As part of this effort, geo-tagging of farms is also currently underway. This will help create digital soil nutrient maps across FPO clusters, enabling more customized agronomic advice and supporting traceability, certification, and better market access in the future.
This combined use of technology is a step toward building more resilient, productive, and climate-smart agricultural ecosystems.
