                      How AI Helps

                      AI can help farmers better understand and improve soil health:

                        AI systems can analyse soil data collected from sensors to offer recommendations on how to use
                         fertilisers, manage irrigation and plan crop rotation. As part of the 2026 Union Budget, the Indian
                         government introduced an AI-powered platform called Bharat Vistaar. This platform provides
                         farmers with localised information, including soil conditions, weather forecasts, pest detection
                         and expert advice, all available in their native languages. The aim is to offer personalised crop
                         and soil recommendations, covering areas like fertiliser use and irrigation needs.
                        AI-powered mobile applications allow farmers to take photos of crop issues and receive
                         immediate  guidance.  The Indian Ministry  of Agriculture  and Farmers launched  the  app,

                         namely,  Collection  of Real-Time  Observations  and  Photos  of Crops  (CROPIC). This app
                         enables farmers to upload photos of their crops at different growth stages. The AI system
                         then assesses the health of the crops, identifies any signs of stress or damage and provides
                         real-time monitoring and suggestions for improvement.

                                        If 'Blue' is 4, 'Green' is 5 and 'Yellow' is 6, what number is 'Orange'?

                                                a)  5                                              b)  6

                                                c)  7                                              d)  8

                      AI-ASSISTED HEALTHCARE

                      AI is transforming healthcare around the world,  making  it  faster, more accurate  and more
                      affordable. In India, where the healthcare system must support over 1.3 billion people, there is
                      a significant gap between the demand for healthcare services and the available resources. AI

                      is playing a crucial role in bridging this gap by helping with early disease detection, analysing
                      medical images and supporting healthcare professionals in decision-making.

                      AI also enables virtual healthcare and remote patient monitoring, which means patients can consult
                      doctors through telemedicine platforms and use wearable devices that monitor vital signs in real
                      time. This allows doctors to track patients' health from a distance and make timely decisions.
