HEXPRS LLP introduces FertoBot, an integrated "Farm Intelligence and Response" ecosystem designed to transition Indian agriculture from manual labor to precision automation. The business concept centers on a solar-powered, autonomous hardware hub that solves two critical pain points: resource inefficiency and crop security. FertoBot utilizes a proprietary sensor suite to monitor soil health (pH/moisture) and detect animal intrusions via motion sensor technology. Unlike passive monitoring tools, it executes active responses through automated pesticide spraying and smart deterrents (high-intensity lights/buzzers). To bridge the digital divide, the system features an AI voice-call agent, allowing farmers to receive emergency alerts and real-time field data through simple phone interactions, bypassing the need for high technical literacy. The model targets high-value clusters in Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Gujarat, specifically focusing on large-scale farmers and FPOs. By improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency (currently below 50%) and reducing water consumption, the system aims to increase yields by 20% while cutting input costs by 25%. Backed by a DST New Gen IEDC grant and recognition at the Innovate Bharat Hackathon, HEXPRS is positioned to scale FertoBot as a critical infrastructure layer for the 110,000+ hectares of protected cultivation in India .
