Norwegian fertiliser company Yara International has developed roughly 12 million apps, aimed at promoting modern, smart farming techniques to Thailand's four farmers and the technology is engaging the region's tech-savvy younger farmers so they may continue the family business. Yara's apps offer a range of educational information and services such as gauging the nutrient level in crops and determining the nitrogen status of soil through photos to avoid over-fertilisation. They are being deployed as part of the government's Thailand 4.0 initiative.
