BharatRohan unveils upgraded SeedAssure service for precision hybrid trials

New Delhi: BharatRohan has introduced an upgraded version of its SeedAssure® service, designed to revolutionize the evaluation of hybrid seeds.

This revamped offering leverages cutting-edge drone technology combined with detailed data analytics to provide seed companies with unprecedented insights into seed performance.

The enhanced SeedAssure® allows users to fully tailor the visualization platform to meet specific needs.

In the quest to assess new hybrid or high-yield seeds under various climatic conditions, having precise and reliable data is essential. SeedAssure® addresses the shortcomings of traditional manual monitoring by delivering highly accurate, actionable data. This innovation empowers seed companies to enhance seed development and support global food security.

Drones provide rapid data collection across extensive trial areas, significantly faster than human teams. They ensure high accuracy and consistency, capturing detailed and standardized data with minimal human error or bias. Unlike human evaluators, drones maintain consistent scoring for disease severity across different trial sites.

Economically, drones offer a cost-effective alternative to large field crews, especially over time. They enable frequent data collection, which allows for early detection of crop stress or disease, facilitating timely interventions. Additionally, drones provide a wealth of data types, enabling a thorough analysis of crop health and growth.

Drones also enhance safety by accessing difficult or hazardous terrains without risking field workers. They support scalability, allowing data collection from multiple locations, thus offering broader insights into seed performance.

“BharatRohan’s mission is to empower agriculture with cutting-edge technology,” said Amandeep Panwar, Director & Co-Founder. “SeedAssure® exemplifies this commitment by providing seed companies with the precise drone data needed to develop superior seeds.”

By combining regular drone surveys with expert agronomist assessments, SeedAssure® guarantees detailed observation and documentation across all trial stages. The platform’s plot-specific data gathering and timeline-driven database facilitate comparative analysis of different seed varieties, helping companies achieve more precise and faster results.

Rishabh Choudhary, Director & Co-Founder added, “SeedAssure® leverages high-resolution and hyperspectral drone data along with machine learning algorithms to detect subtle variations in crop traits. This empowers seed companies with predictive analytics that accelerate the development of high-quality seeds.”
