SOLUTION MODEL
What is NDVI?
-The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is a measure of vegetation health derived from satellite or
drone imagery, calculated using the difference between near-infrared (NIR) and red light reflectance.
Identify ideal NDVI
Take historical NDVI
data
Compare both to identify the production yield
From BBS dataset
From satellite data analysis (MODIS)

Calculate Coefficient of determination using ground truth data
Yield estimation is set to become a game-changing tool for financial institutions and agri-fintech
companies. By leveraging data-driven insights, it enables smarter decision-making—assessing a
farmer's track record, evaluating land performance, and predicting the likelihood of success.
