Ruselectronics holding of Rostec State Corporation has developed a cloud platform for "smart" crop production "Your Harvest". Through the use of digital technologies, the solution is able to generate task cards for agricultural machinery, plan sowing work, and also give recommendations on the use of fertilizers. The introduction of the platform will increase harvesting, reduce equipment downtime, as well as reduce the cost of seed and agrochemical products. official website of the State Corporation Rostec.
After uploading the soil chemical analysis data into the system, the platform compiles a “digital map” of farmland and provides agricultural producers with information to get the maximum yield in a particular area.
The platform generates recommendations on the optimal technology of agricultural production, including digital task cards for the application of fertilizers and chemical plant protection products, which are transferred using a flash drive to the on-board computer of agricultural machinery that controls the actuators - sprayers and spreaders. The platform is built on the basis of cloud technologies, while user data is securely protected.
“The software product developed by Ruselectronics specialists combines the functionality of a whole range of digital solutions that will allow farms and agricultural holdings to optimize their activities based on the principles of precision farming. Thus, the use of the platform will help reduce the cost of seeds and fertilizers, reduce equipment downtime and increase yields. I am sure that the use of the development will increase the economic efficiency of Russian agricultural enterprises, which entrepreneurs in the agricultural segment will appreciate,” said Oleg Yevtushenko, Executive Director of Rostec State Corporation.
“Our development provides consumers with an intelligent scalable tool for managing agricultural production based on domestic secure information technologies. In the future, we plan to create an agro-consulting center on the basis of the enterprise, which will implement innovative digital solutions of our own design at agricultural enterprises,” said Marina Deykina, General Director of NIIIT.
To date, the basic version of the cloud platform has been developed. Production tests of the system, taking place on the experimental fields of the Tver and Tula regions, will be completed this year.
