[DSC DACH 24] Precision agriculture with AI - Catalin Gheorghiu

You cannot do precision agriculture without IoT and AI. Or let’s see an AI/Custom Vision solutions from the real world, and see what makes them tick. And this opens a lot of other fields (pun intended 😊) of application. In this session I will share from the experience creating a couple of solutions in the field of precision agriculture. We will see what kind of problems are tackling a solution of this kind. And of course, how to solve them fastest. We will try even live demos and of course chocolates.

1. Catalin Gheorghiu EPAM Systems Precision agriculture with AI

2. Ideas Meteorogical predictions Vegetation indexes NDVI Processing aerial imagery Other  Pest and disease control Water management

3. Pest insects | A threat for your crops Insects are responsible of about 20% of crop losses worldwide A significant amount of the pesticides sprayed miss their target due to spray drift, off-target deposition, and photodegradation $70 B+ Economical impact yearly 20 % c rops damaged by pest insects yearly 698 million tonnes of insecticides sprayed yearly 4

4. Real time | Automated Pest insect monitoring Teraseya Fly | Your crop guardian Real time alerts: pest insect likehood , first occurrence, when to spray… Hassle-free: plug&play , 1 field visit a month… +4 9,8€ Economical impact per hectare +3% Yield increase -8% Inputs 5 Smart trap Cloud Infrastructure Web/mobile app

5. How it works ? Attracts targeted insects with Pheromones & lights Counts targeted insects in real time Infrared insect detection Embedded insect recognition Traps insects Avoiding doubling counting Enabling visual inspection No sticky plates Sends real time reports to the cloud platform 6 Plug & play Maintenance less trap Same trap for all crops Lower connectivity requirements 1 field visit a month Earlier detection Real time alerts
