Satyukt Analytics, a Bengaluru-based agri-tech company, has been granted a patent for its proprietary technology that estimates soil nitrogen levels using satellite data, marking a significant advancement in precision agriculture.

The patented method enables accurate and scalable estimation of soil nitrogen content—a critical parameter for plant growth—without the need for expensive and time-consuming field sampling. The company said the innovation will help farmers optimize fertilizer use, improve crop yields, and reduce environmental impact.

Transforming Agri-Intelligence Through Space Data

“This patent marks a major milestone in our mission to transform agriculture through innovation and science,” said Sat Kumar Tomer, Co-Founder and CEO of Satyukt Analytics. “Our technology empowers farmers with actionable insights while supporting sustainable resource management at scale,” he added.

According to the company, traditional soil testing methods often involve labor-intensive sampling and can deliver inconsistent results due to spatial variability. Satyukt’s patented approach uses satellite imagery, AI, and advanced data analytics to generate high-resolution soil nutrient maps, allowing for real-time nitrogen monitoring across large agricultural regions.

Leveraging Remote Sensing and AI

Founded in Bengaluru, Satyukt Analytics specializes in remote sensing, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing to deliver real-time insights on soil health, crop conditions, and weather patterns through its digital platforms and APIs.

The company said this patent strengthens its intellectual property portfolio and reinforces its position as a leader in satellite-powered agricultural intelligence.

By reducing reliance on physical soil testing and enabling data-driven fertilizer management, Satyukt’s innovation is expected to contribute to more efficient input use, higher productivity, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture.
