MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611011165 A) filed by Dr. Rajesh Kumar; and Dr. Monika Yadav, Karnal, Haryana, on Feb. 3, for 'decision-support system for optimizing potato planting dates under climate variability in north-western india.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Rajesh Kumar; and Dr. Monika Yadav.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a decision-support system designed to determine optimal planting dates for potato cultivation under conditions of climate variability. The system integrates climatic data, including temperature and rainfall parameters, with crop growth evaluation and decision rules to assess the impact of different planting dates on potato growth and yield potential. By simulating multiple planting date scenarios, the system identifies planting windows that minimize exposure to adverse climatic conditions and support favourable crop development. The invention provides location-specific and season-specific planting recommendations for north-western India, enabling farmers and agricultural stakeholders to make informed, climate-adaptive decisions. The system contributes to improved yield stability, efficient resource utilization, and enhanced resilience of potato production systems under changing climatic conditions."
