Deep Learning Empowered Natural Language Understanding Voicebot’s for farmers: Kissan Samvaad Initiative

The ‘Kissan Samvaad’ work focuses on implementing a closed-domain Chatbot using the RASA Open Source Framework to address the lack of timely access to expert agricultural advice for farmers. Despite the rapid growth of Deep Learning and NLU based Chatbots in various fields, farmers often rely on peer knowledge to solve agricultural problems. Kissan Samvaad aims to bridge this gap by allowing farmers to interact with the Chatbot to specify farmers need. By identifying intents and entities in user inputs, the Chatbot retrieves relevant information from its database to provide remedies and solutions using BERT. Initial testing of Kissan Samvaad has shown promising results, indicating its potential to serve as a valuable resource for farmers.
