Agrotech Risk: Smarter farming with AI
Year: 2017
Founders: Akhilesh Jain
Introduction
Founded in 2017 in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, Agrotech Risk is a cutting-edge AgriTech venture born out of a collaboration between Trinity League India Limited and Ctrl2Go LLC. Spearheaded by Akhilesh Jain, the company blends AI, drone tech, and remote sensing to help farmers, insurers, and policymakers make better, faster, and more accurate decisions. With a lean yet impactful team of 11–50 professionals, Agrotech Risk is focused on delivering sustainability, scalability, and scientific precision across India’s agricultural value chain.
Tackling Agricultural Challenges
Farmers in India are still dealing with a number of problems, including poor yield forecasting, crop loss, and a lack of real-time field condition visibility. In addition to farmers, banks and insurance companies that depend on manual, delayed assessments also face difficulties as a result of these problems. By filling these gaps with high-resolution data, AI-powered models, and sophisticated aerial analytics, Agrotech Risk streamlines insurance claims, enhances planning, and reduces financial risk throughout the ecosystem.
Key Offerings
- CLASS Software: Proprietary Crop Loss Assessment Support System for yield forecasting and damage assessment
- Drone-Based Mapping: Captures field-level data for health monitoring and damage analytics
- AI & Remote Sensing: Machine learning models paired with multispectral camera data
- Water Quality Monitoring: Supports precision irrigation and soil health analysis
Real Impact
Success Story
During a sudden drought in Uttar Pradesh, Agrotech Risk stepped in with its CLASS software and drone services to monitor crop health in real time. Instead of waiting weeks for manual field assessments, their AI models and satellite data provided rapid estimates of yield losses. This timely data empowered insurers under PMFBY to settle claims faster, helping farmers recover quickly. While Agrotech Risk didn’t work directly with each farmer, its impact was deeply felt—from faster insurance payouts to informed decisions by agri-officers on seed and fertilizer planning, proving how tech can quietly yet powerfully uplift entire rural ecosystems.
Lessons for Agri-Startups
Agrotech Risk offers powerful takeaways for AgriTech entrepreneurs building for deep, systemic change:
- B2G/B2B AgTech is Scalable: Direct-to-farmer is not the only path—agri-policy, insurance, and institutional channels offer scale and impact.
- Tech for Risk, Not Just Yield: Most agri-tech platforms chase productivity; Agrotech Risk proves that mitigating loss is just as important.
- Automation Builds Trust: By removing human bias from yield assessments, their solutions build credibility among stakeholders.
- AI + Aerial Data = Speed: Combining ground-truth drones with satellite imaging and AI leads to actionable decisions in real-time.
- Micro-Insights = Macro Value: Even without direct farmer engagement, timely insights power entire ecosystems—from banks to ministries.
