CO2 EMISSIONS FROM AGRICULTURE

Background/Problem Statement:

The agriculture sector is a significant contributor to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, primarily due to practices like deforestation, fertilizer use, and transportation. Reducing agricultural emissions is crucial for mitigating climate change, yet accurately quantifying these emissions is a complex challenge. Traditional methods are time-consuming and costly. In this case study our Minsky^TM AI was used to predict and monitor CO2 emissions from agricultural activities, addressing the need for efficient and accurate monitoring.

Solution Overview:

After a comprehensive evaluation of data, Ai labs used Ai capabilities by leveraging the power of our proprietary AI engine Minsky to accurately build predictive model to estimate CO2 emissions from agriculture. The model utilized a diverse dataset comprised of attributes such as Savanna Fires, Forest Fires, Crop Residues, Rice Cultivation, Drained organic soils, Pesticides Manufacturing, Food Transport, Forest land,

Net forest conversion, Forest Retail, food household consumption etc. Our objective was to develop a robust predictive model that precisely estimate Co2 emissions based on the above factors. This AI-driven solution offered real-time monitoring and predictions, enabling farmers, policymakers, and environmental organizations to make informed decisions and implement sustainable agricultural practices. This approach not only streamlined emissions quantification but also provided valuable insights for the agriculture sector to reduce its environmental footprint, ultimately contributing to global efforts to combat climate change.

Key Benefits (Minsky):

• User-Friendly cloud-based AI platform
• Scalable across various domains/data.
• Provides you a list of % dependency features that can be used to optimize the outcomes.
• Ability to fine tune or optimize the models by trying different algorithms / prediction attributes
• Easy integration with other third-party solutions such as TABLEAU for data visualization
