Ericsson Reveals its Internet of Things Solutions for the Farmers of Andhra Pradesh

India: Sweden-based technology player, Ericsson, demonstrated its connected Smart Water Grid Management and Aquaponics IoT solutions for Andhra Pradesh’s Mori village to fulfil the state government’s aim of developing sustainable and smart villages in the state. 

The deployment of wireless sensors as well as the Aquaponics IoT solution of Ericsson will enable the farmers to monitor their aquafarms continuously for 24 hours to get real time information. This, in turn, will help in minimizing the production cost and increasing the yield of the aquafarms through ideal deployment of raw materials as well as continuous use of water.

However, the Smart Water Grid Management IoT solution of Ericsson will allow the farmers to proficiently use the natural water resources through actuators and sensors in Godavari basin.  

TechSci Research depicts that the provision of these IoT solutions by Ericsson will make farming more easy in Andhra Pradesh by enabling the farmers to get real time information regarding their farms.

According to the recent report published by TechSci Research, “India Internet of Things (IoT) Market Forecast & Opportunities, 2020”, IoT market in India is projected to grow at a CAGR over 28% during 2015- 2020. IoT is being rapidly brought into use across diverse industry verticals to reduce operational and manpower costs, and increase operational efficiency. Consumer electronics, automotive & transportation, BFSI, home & building, energy & utilities, retail, supply chain & logistic sectors, and manufacturing are the key emerging application areas where IoT technology is majorly being adopted. However, India’s IoT market is highly fragmentedwith numerous players operating across the value chain.
