According to AI TIMES, the Rural Development Administration will launch version 2.0 of its agriculture-focused service, 'AI Isak-i,' on September 30, which handles pest and disease diagnosis and farming consultation in a single app. To improve answer accuracy, it trained the system on 560,000 technical documents and added photo analysis and voice conversation features to boost on-site usability. This version emphasizes helping farmers get immediate assistance during work, rather than simply offering search-style guidance. Users can upload a photo of a suspected pest- or disease-affected area to receive a diagnosis, and they can also find the information they need by asking questions out loud. The service also stands out for integrating fertilizer and pesticide recommendations as well as farm log management into a single workflow to reduce the burden on farms. It also highlighted a simplified screen design intended to make the service easy for users who are not accustomed to digital devices.

Perspective

The significance of this service lies in the fact that agricultural AI is beginning to move beyond experimental information delivery and into actual work processes. With features like photo and voice that can be used directly in the field, the success of the technology shifts from performance alone to how naturally it can blend into everyday tasks. In the end, if such tools take hold, the way agricultural data is used and the standards for technology adoption are likely to be reorganized around more practical, on-the-ground problem-solving.
