Neutral Farming is building the Smart Agriculture Platform centered on an Agricultural Digital Twin β€” an AI engine that virtually recreates real-world fields with up to 95% accuracy. By simulating and optimizing farming processes, we help clients improve profitability and transition toward sustainable production. The project integrates real-time data from irrigation and climate sensors, models forecasting weather impacts, and a scalable backend that supports production-grade AI workflows.
