Global crop science major Syngenta Group aims to expand its digital platform, ‘Cropwise Grower’, to support India’s smallholder farmers by providing access to the latest technologies, market prices, and agronomist services in local languages, a senior company official said.

“The game changer is that the small farmers who might not have had access to expert agronomists, can now get answers from an AI in their local languages personalized to their specific farm holding,” Feroz Sheikh, chief information and digital officer, Syngenta Group, told FE.
