Enabling datasets The following foundational datasets are critical to train AI models for pest detection and control. Farm-level coordinates and soil data Includes farm-level data on coordinates and soil profiles (e.g. composition, texture, microbial activity, pH levels, organic carbon).Climate and weather data Includes data on (historic and current) rainfall and other forms of precipitation, humidity, sunlight, temperature and wind at district level.Best practices and advisory Includes knowledge on pest- management practices for potential pests in different crops. Historic pest-attack data Includes historic data on pest incidence in different locations with clear time signatures.Pest biology, behaviour and images Includes repository of data on pests, including behaviour, feeding patterns and images.Enabling datasets required for pest prediction and control FIGURE 8 Future Farming in India 22
