Data interoperability in Agriculture data solutions
A barrier to digital transformation is that agriculture lacks data standardization and specific industry standards. However, the industry is regulated, especially concerning farm inputs like seeds and crop protection products. To enable insights, each customer/ISV should invest in their own proprietary data models, making interoperability complex. Azure Data Manager for Agriculture provides a clear path to interoperability with a standard data model, data transformation processes, and referenceable data sets.
