Analyzing Proactive Use Cases of Augmented
Reality in Agriculture Market
Augmented reality (AR) is no longer privy to
agriculture, offering enhanced sustainability,
productivity, and efficiency. As per Inkwood
Research, the global augmented reality in
agriculture market growth is anticipated to
progress at a CAGR of 31.12 during the forecast
period, 2023- 2032. Farmers can increase
production, minimize crop wastage, and train
other farmers by leveraging augmented reality in
agriculture.

• Our blog explores a few proactive use cases of
  augmented reality in agriculture.
• BASF Digital Farming GmbH's SCOUTING improves
  Agronomic Decisions
• On 9th March 2021, BASF Digital Farming GmbH
  signed an agreement with AGvisorPRO to expand
  access to an accredited, local agronomic advisor
  through its xarvio SCOUTING application. This
  will enable SCOUTING users to share pictures of
  an in-field problem, like diseases, insects, and
  unknown weeds, with a virtual agronomic advisor
  to learn about solutions. The users can choose to
  connect to agriculture domain experts by clicking
  the AGvisorPRO button after receiving an instant
  response and high-level recommendations.
• Says Brent Nicol, Commercial Lead for xarvio at
  BASF Digital Farming, "The connection between our
  automatized in-field problem identifier, xarvio
  SCOUTING, and the AGvisorPRO connectivity
  platform will provide another way to assist
  farmers with identifying problems in their
  field." (Source)
• Further, Robert Saik, AGvisorPRO CEO, adds, "It
  is my belief that the key to greater
  profitability, increased sustainability and
  enhanced food security comes from farmers having
  access to the right information from the right
  expert at the right time. With SCOUTING and
  AGvisorPRO our goal is to make agriculture
  better." (Source)
• Plantix The Crop Clinician

• Plantix is an app developed to help farmers
  combat pest damage, nutrient deficiency, and
  disease in their crops. Plantix is based on deep
  learning and was developed by a group of
  scientists and graduate students to help farmers
  tackle crop diseases and deficiencies.
• The farmers capture and upload the image with GPS
  on the app, which then identifies the crop type
  in the image and releases the disease diagnosis.
• Moreover, Plantix recommends targeted chemical or
  biological treatments for disease plants. In
  addition, the app helps reduce the volume of
  agrochemicals in waterways and groundwater and
  waterways resulting from incorrect application or
  overuse of pesticides and herbicides.
• Says Charlotte Schumann, co-founder of PEAT
  (Progressive Environmental Agricultural
  Technologies), "It was really important for us to
  understand what farmers wanted, so we did a lot
  of groundwork in India." (Source)
• Furthermore, Plantix is multilingual and is
  presently available in 18 languages.
• Explains Simone Strey, PEAT's chief executive, "
  the farmers often use different names for crop
  diseases than those used by scientists. And if
  the farmers don't know the scientific name, they
  won't be able to search for solutions online."

• Unfurled View Trimble's Next-Generation
  Agriculture Displays
• On 3rd October 2022, Trimble introduced its
  next-generation displays for its precision
  agriculture applications, the Trimble GFX-1260
  and GFX-1060 displays. The company's innovative
  displays facilitate swift and efficient in-field
  operations while monitoring and mapping field
  information in real time with precision.
• Further, the GFX-1260 and GFX-1060 displays are
  compatible with Trimble NAV-500 and NAV- 900
  Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)
  guidance controllers.
• The Trimble GFX-1260 and GFX-1060 displays
  feature
• Flexible connectivity through integrated wireless
  options
• Data sharing through the optional AutoSync
  feature
• Connecting with industry-leading GNSS correction
  services
• Coherent communication between tractor and farm
  equipment
• Compatibility with Trimble Ag Software
• Says Jim Chambers, vice president of Trimble
  Agriculture, "The displays operate in tough
  environments and during long days in the field
  throughout every season, allowing users to
  confidently perform a range of field operations
  quickly and reliablythey are powerful to run and
  simple to use." (Source)
• Augmented Reality in Agriculture Increasing
  Investments Reflect Growth Potential
• The impact of technology and the subsequent
  introduction of novel agriculture technologies
  are transitioning the agricultural industry. On
  the other hand, the proven operational and
  economic benefits of agricultural technologies
  have facilitated the entry of startups and small
  businesses.
• Accordingly, the profit derived from data-driven
  efficiency through agriculture technologies has
  resulted in huge investments in the agritech
  industry. The investments are also driven by the
  growing demand for higher yields due to the
  increasing population in countries like Vietnam,
  India,

• China, the Philippines, Japan, and Indonesia.
  Such investments testify to the growth potential
  of the global augmented reality in agriculture
  market.
