About
Sajani Banneka is a rising researcher at the intersection of agricultural technology and intelligent automation, with a core focus on vertical farming systems and precision agriculture. Her most impactful work, "Automated Crop Harvesting, Growth Monitoring and Disease Detection System for Vertical Farming Greenhouse" (2021), has garnered 11 citations and represents a significant contribution to sustainable food production. In this study, Banneka addresses critical challenges in controlled-environment agriculture by integrating computer vision, IoT sensors, and robotic mechanisms to automate three essential tasks: harvesting, real-time growth tracking, and early disease identification. Her system enables vertical farming greenhouses to operate with minimal human intervention while maximizing crop yield and quality. By combining machine learning algorithms with sensor data, Banneka’s approach allows for proactive disease management and optimized resource use—key factors in making urban vertical farming economically viable. Her work stands out for its practical, systems-level thinking, bridging the gap between agricultural science and engineering. As global food security concerns intensify, Banneka’s research offers a scalable, technology-driven pathway to more resilient and efficient food production, positioning her as an emerging voice in smart agriculture.
