The Problem

Most crop diseases start small. Most farmers can't catch them early.

A leaf spot. A little yellowing. A slight curl. Small signs like these are easy to miss, and hard to explain in words to someone else.

Hard to identify alone

Most farmers cannot tell which disease it is, just by looking.

Guesswork and delay

Farmers ask neighbours, visit pesticide shops, or wait for an officer to visit.

Help arrives too late

By the time the right advice comes, the disease has often spread across the field.

Costly, unclear treatment

Farmers often buy chemical pesticide without knowing if it's the right one, or needed at all.

A small delay can cost the whole season

Week 1

A few leaves show spots. Cheap and easy to treat now, if noticed.

Week 2 to 3

Without help, it spreads to nearby plants. Farmers reach for any spray they can find.

Week 4 onward

A large part of the field is affected. Money and food are both at risk.

Advice isn't in Odia

Most agriculture websites and apps use English or Hindi. Many farmers can't use them.

Officers can't be everywhere

One agriculture officer cannot reach every village the moment a disease shows up.

Solution

Upload a photo of a diseased crop. Get the disease name and the best treatment.

KrushakaSathi.in reads the photo, works out what's likely wrong, and explains what to do next, in Odia.

Expected Impact

What this could mean for farmers

KrushakaSathi.in is a new, student built tool. These are the outcomes it's designed to work toward, not measured results yet.

Earlier detection

Farmers can check a crop the moment something looks wrong, instead of waiting.

Less crop loss

Catching a disease early gives a much better chance of saving the crop.

Lower farming costs

Less money spent on the wrong pesticide, bought out of guesswork.

Less unnecessary spraying

Chemical treatment is only suggested when it's really needed.

Healthier soil

Less chemical overuse means better soil for seasons to come.

Better yield

Treating a disease early gives the crop a better chance to recover fully.

Knowledge in Odia

Farmers get useful, clear advice in a language they understand.

Support close to home

Advice is available right away, without waiting for an officer to visit.
