Past Challenges
We seek a technological solution that allows precise tracking and efficient management of soybean leaf sample inventory. The solution should be capable of automating identification at the time of collection, including geolocation of the collection site, storage, cataloging, and monitoring of the samples, ensuring high accuracy and reliability of the data. If your startup offers a cutting-edge technology solution, such as IoT (Internet of Things), blockchain, RFID, or others that ensure traceability and geolocation of the collection site, as well as data integrity, minimizing manual intervention and automating as much of the process as possible, with scalability to handle large volumes of samples, and most importantly, is easy to use for field operators and management teams, this challenge is for you. Startups with successful cases in the agricultural sector will have a competitive advantage. Interested startups should submit their proposals through the link below by 09/08/2024. The proposals must include a detailed description of the solution, previous use cases, and how the technology meets the objectives and requirements described.
