BharatRohan’s Drone Technology Equipping Farmers with Data-Driven Insights and Sustainable Solutions

CXOToday has engaged in an exclusive interview with Rishabh Choudhary, Co-founder & Director, BharatRohan

1.      How does BharatRohan harness technology to tackle agricultural challenges through its drones?

Bharat Rohan is an innovative user of drone technology adapted to combat agricultural challenges. Our drones are enhanced with multimodal data analysis technology based on a combination of hyperspectral and multispectral imaging technologies to capture comprehensive data on crop health, soil conditions, and pest infestations.  This data enables us to provide actionable insights to farmers, empowering them to make proactive decisions that optimize resource use and maximize yields. Through this innovative approach, we are not only revolutionizing agriculture but also empowering farmers, and ensuring a sustainable food supply chain.

2.      What technological advancements characterize BharatRohan’s drones, and how do they empower farmers?

Bharat Rohan’s drones are equipped with advanced features that are transforming the agriculture industry. With a 1.5kg payload capacity of hyperspectral and multispectral imaging, terrace and obstacle sensors, and a 120m operational ceiling, the drones are designed to provide farmers with the most accurate and precise data possible. The folding design enhances portability, while extended flight times and payload capacities ensure maximum efficiency. Integrated with a cloud-based Decision Support System, these drones empower farmers with real-time insights for optimized crop management and increased yield.

3.      Could you elaborate on the role of data analytics and AI in BharatRohan’s drone solutions, and how they enhance agricultural operations?

Data analytics and AI play an important role in BharatRohan’s drone solutions, driving efficiency and productivity in agricultural operations. By automating insight generation and optimizing resource management, these technologies enable farmers to make timely decisions based on accurate data, reducing waste usage and increasing productivity. Our solutions detect anomalies, ensuring reliable insights into crop health and environmental conditions, and empowering farmers for sustainable and efficient farming practices.

4.      What unique technological features set BharatRohan’s drones apart from traditional farming methods, and how do they drive efficiency and productivity?

Bharat Rohan’s unmanned aerial vehicle drones represent a major advance in agricultural technology, offering unique features that drive efficiency and productivity. With increased endurance, these drones could cover up to 250 acres of agricultural land in a single flight, significantly reducing the time and effort required to monitor and maintain crops. Their aerodynamic efficiency allows for smooth and precise navigation, even in challenging terrain or weather conditions. By providing reliable and timely information, Bharat Rohan’s drones enable farmers to make rational decisions faster and more efficiently, ultimately resulting in improved yields and agriculture-sustainable practices

5.      How does BharatRohan ensure seamless integration of its drone technology with existing agricultural practices, and what potential obstacles do you foresee in adoption?

BharatRohan ensures the seamless integration of its drone technology with existing agricultural practices through tailored solutions and comprehensive support. By collaborating closely with farmers, we understand their needs and challenges, ensuring our drones complement their traditional methods rather than replace them. Through extensive training and ongoing assistance, we empower farmers to effectively utilize our technology in their operations. Potential obstacles to adoption include resistance to change, initial investment concerns, and regulatory hurdles. Nevertheless, BharatRohan remains committed to overcoming these challenges through continued engagement, education, and collaboration, driving productivity and sustainability in agriculture.

6.      Can you share insights into BharatRohan’s future technological endeavors aimed at further transforming the agricultural landscape?

BharatRohan is spearheading future technological endeavors aimed at further transforming the agricultural landscape. Our focus includes leveraging edge computing to enable real-time data analysis directly on drones or at the edge of the network, empowering farmers with immediate insights for informed decision-making. We’re also working on developing a user-friendly low code analysis platform, simplifying data analysis for farmers, and enhancing accessibility to drone-collected data. Additionally, we are developing specialized “Farmer Drones” designed with features tailored to agricultural needs, including crop monitoring to help in precision agriculture.
