SeedAssure
India
Developed by BharatRohan Ltd., SeedAssure is a digital platform for seed companies to conduct hybrid yield trials. It uses drone technology and hyperspectral imagery to collect precise phenotypical data on eight critical parameters throughout the seed trial process. The solution tracks data from germination to yield, including plant count, chlorophyll content, canopy coverage, pest and disease severity, plant height, crop-specific traits, germination rate, and water stress. SeedAssure enhances food security by enabling the development of superior-quality hybrid seeds through accurate and efficient plot-level data collection and analysis.
