Agriculture

Reference architecture for an agricultural advisory assistant – multilingual, multi-channel guidance grounded in agronomy, with weather-aware alerts, powered by the NAISH Hub.

A smallholder farmer wants advice over chat, voice, or IVR, in their own language; an extension agent supports many farmers from an app. This template shows an advisory assistant grounded in agronomy that also pushes timely alerts.

Agriculture reference architecture

How it works

  1. Channels – farmers reach the advisor over chat, voice, or IVR; extension agents use an app.
  2. Gateway & consent – access, authentication, and consent first.
  3. AI advisory agent (+ skills) – reasons about the question and calls skills: the model for language, retrieval over agronomy knowledge, and the farmer-profile service for personalised advice.
  4. NAISH Hub – serves the models on GPU. Sovereign AI core.
  5. Data & dependencies – a vector store grounds advice, a farmer database personalises it, weather / GIS data informs alerts, and alerts fan out to messaging (IVR / SMS) through a queue.

Where the Hub adds value

  • Local-language reach – Hub-served models advise in the farmer's language across low-bandwidth channels.
  • Grounded, timely – retrieval ties advice to real agronomy; weather-aware alerts reach farmers before they need to act.
  • Sovereignty – farmer data and models stay on national infrastructure; see Governance & Risk.
