A Crop Disease may be caused by an insect pest, microorganisms, etc. while a Plant Deficiency occurs due to the lack of any macro or micro-nutrients in the plant body. 

 

Outgrow has a “Plant and Insect Pests Identification and Information” system that enables farmers, especially beginners, to quick Crop Disease Detection or Insect Pests Identification. You can say that the Agriculture Apps are Disease Plant Doctors for the Framers!

Agriculture Apps such as Outgrow, are equipped with Crop Disease Identification set up to allow the users to quickly diagnose crop the cause behind crop degradation. 

 

Outgrow is equipped with more than 35,000+ insect pest identification that is commonly found in India. 

Farmers just have to capture the diseased plant, insert it into the app, and it will tell its scientific name, local name, and family of the insect. One farmer came to know about the problem with the crop, and 50% of the problem has been resolved. 


Plant Deficiency Identification via Agriculture App

 

Our soils are not as nutrient-rich as they were years ago. We have to add synthetic or natural fertilizers to keep them healthy so that they can produce healthy crops. 

 

However, It is necessary for a plant to not be nutrient deficient if it is grown in healthy soil. because plant deficiencies are of different kinds, and the supply of nutrients to the plant depends upon multiple factors. It also depends upon the type of nutrients as all nutrients are available to the plant under certain circumstances (sunlight, water availability, other nutrients level, etc. )

 

Outgrow Agriculture App provide farmers with all this information so that they can detect plant deficiency on time and devise possible remedies. 



Authentic Crop Advisory

 

With the increase in Young Agriculture Entrepreneurs in the field of Farming, we need more and more authentic Crop Advisory for their assistance and encouragement. 

 

It is provided by the Expert Agro Framing Scientists associated with Outgrow. Farmers are free to consult Agriculture Experts from all fields of agriculture (Agronomy, Entomology, Horticulture, etc.) via audio, video, or text messages. 

 

The App is equipped with 6 different languages including English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Marathi so that farmers can easily and confidently avail the service they need.
