AgAsk: A Machine Learning Generated Question-Answering Conversational Agent for Data-driven Growing Decisions

AgAsk, a machine learning question-answering system, will interpret natural language questions and provide contextualised access to insights into agricultural research. Text information that is currently locked away in GRDC project reports and scientific publications will be searched and synthesised by AgAsk into succinct and relevant answers to growers’ questions. The resulting app will provide growers access to evidence-based information, leveraging the inherent value of previous GRDC project outcomes and insights.
