Spreading Knowledge

It is surprising that in this age of internet connectivity, 85% mobile penetration in India and presence of eminent institutes of agricultural research, sometimes the right information does not reach the person in time. GIST is working towards identifying the amazing grassroot work in developing the right tools and knowledge repositories.

For example, a team at IIT Hyderabad has developed a simple yes/no tree to identify common problems in Cotton, Paddy and other crops. The tool is available in English and Kannada for now, over web, android and iOS platforms. After entering the symptoms in a simple yes/ no format the farmer can immediately get the recommendation for remedies right away.

  • Growing better crops.
  • Spreading scientific knowledge
  • Urban agriculture
