A mobile and web application that lets farmers and extension workers upload crop photos, get disease diagnoses, and receive localized pest advisories and risk forecasts.

Signing in saves it for your whole team — everyone on your invite link sees the same two entries. Anything you shortlisted while signed out comes with you.
Decomposed from what the description asks for. Nothing added.
Image Diagnosis Tool
Allows users to upload photos of symptoms for automated identification of diseases and pests.
Risk Forecasting Engine
Combines weather, soil, and crop stage data to generate proactive risk alerts.
Multilingual Advisory System
Provides actionable management steps and safety instructions in local languages.
Hotspot Mapping Dashboard
Displays geospatial maps and surveillance data for agriculture officials to plan interventions.
Expert Validation Workflow
Connects field users with extension staff or laboratories for verification and referrals.
Both columns are read off the brief's own wording. Nothing here is inferred from the ministry's name.
The jury will check if your system successfully combines image recognition with weather and sensor data, provides multilingual advisories, and includes functional dashboards for agriculture officials.
A jury can still ask about these. Decide them deliberately rather than by accident.
Generated from the brief's own wording and the competition's published rules — never from a guess about what this ministry prefers.
Specific languages that must be supported?
The brief never answers this, so a panel will. Whatever you decide, say it the same way twice.
Target accuracy rate for image diagnosis?
The brief never answers this, so a panel will. Whatever you decide, say it the same way twice.
Format or API details for weather and sensor inputs?
The brief never answers this, so a panel will. Whatever you decide, say it the same way twice.
Has any part of this been shown at a previous event, hackathon or college project?
The guidelines are explicit: your solution must not have appeared in any previous event or programme, of any sort. A recycled project is what a team under time pressure reaches for.
Each one is quoted from a gap in the brief, not a guess about your team.
No measurable target
The text calls for timely and reliable detection but never states a specific accuracy percentage or response time threshold.
What the organisers attached, and what the brief assumes you can get.
Same organisation, same year. Reading two of theirs tells you more about what they care about than reading one.
Pick what you are about to do and copy the prompt. It carries the organisers' own wording, the constraints they never spell out, and an instruction not to invent requirements they never set.
Who has this problem, what already exists, and what you would have to find out.
The brief asks for image diagnosis tool. How would you build that?
Decoded from SIH26131 itself — Allows users to upload photos of symptoms for automated identification of diseases and pests. The brief asks for it by name.
The brief asks for risk forecasting engine. How would you build that?
Decoded from SIH26131 itself — Combines weather, soil, and crop stage data to generate proactive risk alerts. The brief asks for it by name.
The brief asks for multilingual advisory system. How would you build that?
Decoded from SIH26131 itself — Provides actionable management steps and safety instructions in local languages. The brief asks for it by name.
The brief asks for hotspot mapping dashboard. How would you build that?
Decoded from SIH26131 itself — Displays geospatial maps and surveillance data for agriculture officials to plan interventions. The brief asks for it by name.
The brief asks for expert validation workflow. How would you build that?

Where does your data come from — a published source, one you collect, or one you generate?
No dataset is attached to this problem statement, so sourcing it is part of the work and nobody told you that.
Why not use what already exists? Name the closest thing to this that is already running.
A team that has not named the alternative themselves is answering this for the first time in the room.
Which single thing will you demonstrate end to end, start to finish, with nothing skipped?
Ours, not a rule: a narrow thing that fully works survives questioning better than a broad thing that half works. If nobody on the team can name it, that is the finding.
Show me this working: the jury will check if your system successfully combines image recognition with weather and sensor data, provides multilingual advisories, and includes functional dashboards for agriculture officials.
This is the evaluator read for your problem statement, decoded from the brief's own wording.
