Bio Informatics - to create genome annotation software
Geographical Information System (GIS) - to map the environment with crop
Satellite based Remote sensing – to show the status of crops
RFID – to find put the moisture level and contaminations of the soil and also in Food safety
Micro-controller enable motor – to automate the Irrigation
CTND…
Cyber Farm website Rural banks can provide necessary
information regarding agribusiness to the local community
Mobile phones with embedded java speech API to provide information in regional languages
