Agriculture is a critical sector that supports livelihoods and drives economic growth. Our research project on technology in agriculture focuses on developing and implementing digital farming solutions to address key challenges faced by smallholder farmers. .

• Precision Agriculture: Leveraging IoT sensors, satellite imagery, and data analytics to optimize resource management, improve crop yields, and reduce environmental impact through precise monitoring and management of water, fertilizer, and pesticides.
• Developing digital platforms and marketplaces to connect farmers with buyers, enabling real-time price information, market intelligence, and access to finance and inputs, thereby enhancing market access and income opportunities for smallholder farmers.
• Integrating climate-smart agriculture practices and weather forecasting technologies to help farmers anticipate and mitigate the impacts of climate change, such as droughts, floods, and pests, and build resilience to future shocks.

By harnessing the power of these technologies, the agricultural sector can overcome challenges related to productivity, sustainability, and market access, driving innovation and growth in the industry.
