Preserve the freshness and nutritional value of farm produce

Overview

The Infosys Agriculture practice offers bespoke warehouse management solutions to preserve nutritional value while minimizing the loss of perishable produce. We help growers and warehouse operators increase food availability by preventing post-harvest decay / diseases caused by fungi and insects. Continuous monitoring of ambient conditions such as temperature, humidity and oxygen enables preemptive action from remote locations.

Infosys combines automation, the Internet of Things (IoT) and data analytics to ensure safe handling and storage of agricultural produce. Simulation tools evaluate biological variation in products (texture, shape and quality) due to changes in moisture content of the product and / or storage conditions. We use data from grain moisture sensors to assess grain hardness and bulk density. It is integrated with historical field information to predict the optimal storage period.
