Abstract/Description: | Agriculture has been the backbone of Indian economy and nearly 3/4th of the population is dependent on agriculture for its livelihood, which is directly influenced by climate vagaries. In addition, the exponential growth rate in population coupled with increasing demand for food put together resulted in the restless onslaught of natural resources of the country, placing a big question mark on the stability and sustainability of Indian agriculture. Further, the global warming is very much happening phenomenon causing frequent climatic uncertainties on spatial and temporal scales, posing an added challenge to agricultural crop productivity as well as sustainability. As agriculture is essentially a spatial phenomenon, which is not independent of location, we need to move forward with proper planning and management of the existing agriculture lands (= smart farming) to secure food supply on both regional and global scales. Smart farming can make possible through micro-level mapping of natural resources using geo-spatial technologies. These technologies allow us to enhance communication and collaboration in decision-making at various levels to effectively manage farm resources and assets, thereby enhancing the efficiency of overall workflows as well as improving the accessibility of accurate information. At the farm level, multiple variables do operate and comprehensive examination of these variables simultaneously in a geospatial environment helps in better understanding of, how an agricultural system functions and interacts over space and time. This study has developed a proto type of Spatial Decision Support System for Smart Farming using geospatial techniques. The web-based geo-spatial interactive maps at farm level were developed to monitor field activities and integrated with crop growth models to study the Maize crop performance at different stages. Crop parameters like biomass and Leaf Area Index (LAI) were observed from seedling to harvest stage (25-17150 kg/ha and 0.22-1.65, respectively) along with N stress from flowering to harvest (0.01 to 0.44) thereby providing inputs for apt decision-making. In nutshell, the smart farming represents a better way of synthesizing and summarizing knowledge about different components of a crop and supports stakeholders’ decision-making process for efficient crop management |
