Revolutionizing Agriculture with Satellite Imagery

Hamza Rosh Shaham, the co-founder of Sowit, explains how their company helps farmers optimize their decision-making process by providing insights and data recommendations. They leverage satellite imagery and machine learning algorithms to transform satellite data into actionable insights for farmers to make informed choices about irrigation, fertilization, harvest, and other critical decisions. By measuring biophysical parameters, Sowit enables farmers to invest confidently in resources like nitrogen fertilizers and irrigation, optimizing productivity and reducing waste. Their data is also used by insurance banks and governments to assess creditworthiness and understand farming risks. Sowit's solutions are accessible through text alerts, mobile applications, and even agronomic call centers, tailored to suit the diverse connectivity levels of farmers in African countries.
