AI Summit: IIT Ropar builds AI models for hyperlocal weather & pest control to support farmers

At the India AI Impact Summit 2026, Indian Institute of Technology Ropar showcased AI-driven solutions to support farmers with hyperlocal weather forecasting and precision pest control. The institute has developed an AI-enabled micro-weather station that captures real-time farm-level data such as rainfall, wind speed, humidity and solar radiation, delivering forecasts with claimed accuracy of up to 99 per cent. The model has been validated by the India Meteorological Department. In addition, IIT Ropar has built an AI-powered pest advisory system under the IndiaAI Mission, enabling farmers to upload crop images via a mobile app. The model identifies pests, recommends pesticides, and helps protect beneficial insects, aiming to improve productivity and optimise resource use. #PTIAtAIImpactSummit #IndiaAIImpactSummit2026 #AIImpactSummit2026 #IITRopar #AgriTech #AIForFarmers #DigitalAgriculture #PTINews #PTIVideos #PressTrustOfIndia Subscribe to PTI's YouTube channel for in-depth reports, exclusive interviews, and special visual stories that take you beyond the headlines. #PTIVideos PTI News : ptinews.com PTI Fact Check : ptinews.com/factcheck/factcheck.aspx PTI X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/PTI_News PTI Instagram:   / ptinews_multimedia   PTI Facebook:   / presstrustofindia
