Event based experiential computing in agro-advisory system for rural farmers

In our earlier proposed mKRISHI framework, which is a mobile phone based agriculture advisory system, a farmer can record a query with the help of audio-visual interface on the mobile phone application. The multi-modal sensory devices have been deployed to capture the context of the farm so that the query along with the context are presented to the agriculture expert at the web console for the investigation. In this paper, we propose an event based experiential computing approach for agro-advisory services. The classification and modeling of agricultural events, modeling of the agricultural experiences, and a method to browse through the history of agriculture experiences are the key contributions in the present work.
