Farms and farm cooperatives
Master IoT on equipment and in the fields
IoT is streamlining the distribution of agricultural resources by using sensors on farm equipment and in the fields. Farmers can view their crops from anywhere, track the health of their machinery, document harvests and more. When securely distributed and exchanged on a data marketplace, all of this data holds powerful information that is extremely valuable for the extended ecosystem, including:
- Improved crop quality and production techniques
- Efficiencies from machine sharing/leasing
- Insights on sustainable best practices
Agro-suppliers
Upgrade your crop and livestock expertise
Which crop nutrition products and livestock food sources offer optimal yield? Exchanging this kind of data across the agriculture supply chain results in more efficient production for farmers, better pricing for agro-suppliers, and higher profitability for all. Leverage Data Exchange technology to securely integrate data products and marketing insights with real-time farm data:
- Year-over-year farmer production performance with soil and seed adaptations
- Livestock needs for optimal health and growth
- Regional look at crop nutrition requirements
Research & education entities
Define cutting-edge agriculture
Shaping tomorrow’s agriculture must start with a look to today’s best practices. Solving food problems and innovating new techniques in farming for a growing world population requires an industry wide effort. Data exchanges across the food supply chain help the industry avoid mis-steps and map a successful future by:
- Detecting plant disease and infestation
- Identifying cost-effective sustainability practices
- Sharing weather forecast insights to deliver water on-demand programs
Financial services & insurance
Grow a strong agriculture sector
Supporting the agriculture industry comes with good-fit financial products that are particularly accurate when including input from farmers themselves. Know the under-pinnings of your region to best define, offer, and service your products with insights that is the result of secure, compliant Data Exchange, including:
- Data fueled Pay-As-You-Produce and Pay-As-You-Drive models
- Special offerings that reward sustainable practices
- Data points on incident commonality in the region
Industry experts share insights on data exchange in agriculture
Leaders from the agriculture, travel and tourism, biotech and trading sectors joined a discussion panel about the opportunities brought by data exchange at the 2021 MIT CDOIQ Symposium. Notably, he shared his expertise on growing a data ecosystem in such a critical sector as agriculture.
