Inspiration

The idea of EcoSoil started when we noticed the harmful effects of chemical fertilizers and pesticides on soil and the environment. We decided to develop a smart application that analyzes soil images and collects input from farmers—such as fertilizer type and soil pH—to improve assessment accuracy.

What it does

An AI-powered app that analyzes the impact of chemical fertilizers and pesticides on soil health and fertility through imaging, prediction, recommendations, weather-based insights, reports, authority integration, chatbot, FAQ library, and alerts.

How we built it

We built EcoSoil by combining AI-powered image analysis with environmental data inputs such as fertilizer type and soil pH. We trained the model on labeled soil samples, designed a user-friendly interface for farmers, integrated real-time alerts and recommendations, and linked the system with expert databases and governmental platforms for reporting and validation.

Challenges we ran into

One challenge was collecting accurate and diverse soil data for AI training.
We also struggled to design a simple interface suitable for farmers with varying tech skills.
Finally, integrating real-time alerts with official platforms required complex coordination.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Developed a working AI model that analyzes soil images accurately.
Built a user-friendly prototype tested with real farmers.
Created partnerships with environmental experts and local advisors.

What we learned

We learned how to apply AI in agriculture to analyze and predict soil health risks.
We discovered the importance of user-centered design for non-technical users.
We gained experience in coordinating with experts and official entities for validation.
