Hyperspectral imaging, a fundamental tool for gathering crop phenotypic data, excels in early disease detection and crop health assessment. When combined with drone technology, it becomes an invaluable asset for weed and disease monitoring, offering a wide range of applications, from early disease identification to severity quantification.

Harshaditya, a Remote Sensing Engineer at BharatRohan, highlighted the significance of this partnership, stating the significance of hyperspectral data-driven solutions for developing spectral indices and libraries. This technology can detect crop issues before they become visible, aiding in addressing challenges such as pest control, nutrient management, and precision farming to support farmers.

Rishabh Choudhary, CTO of BharatRohan, sees this partnership as a big step in their ability to use hyperspectral and multispectral imaging to help farmers and the agriculture industry. It gives them the knowledge and tools to improve their crop monitoring technology, making farming smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable.
