Farmer.CHAT - Senegal - sep 19

Aimed at Senegal farmers, this bot uses a limited set of PDF plus GPT4's inbuilt knowledge set to answer farming related questions. We load reference documents into a vector database. With each question, we search the vector DB and then add the results to a GPT script below to create an answer to the farmer's questions. More info, links to chat on WhatsApp and technical walkthroughs can be found here too: https://www.help.gooey.ai/farmerchat

👁‍🗨 Conversation Summarization

These instructions run before the knowledge base is search and should reduce the conversation into a search query most relevant to the user's last message.

⌥ Variables

🔑 Keyword Extraction

Instructions to create a query for keyword/hybrid BM25 search. Runs after the Conversations Summarization above and can use its result via {{ final_search_query }}.

Embeddings Model

Text Embedding 3 Large (OpenAI)

Dense Embeddings Weightage

Weightage for dense vs sparse embeddings. 0 for sparse, 1 for dense, 0.5 for equal weight.
Generally speaking, dense embeddings excel at understanding the context of the query, whereas sparse vectors excel at keyword matches.

Max Citations

The maximum number of document search citations.

Max Snippet Words

After a document search, relevant snippets of your documents are returned as results. This setting adjusts the maximum number of words in each snippet. A high snippet size allows the LLM to access more information from your document results, at the cost of being verbose and potentially exhausting input tokens (which can cause a failure of the copilot to respond). Default: 300

Overlapping Snippet Lines

Your knowledge base documents are split into overlapping snippets. This settings adjusts how much those snippets overlap. In general you shouldn't need to adjust this. Default: 5

🔠 Language Model Settings

Avoid Repetition

Answer Outputs

How many answers should the copilot generate? Additional answer outputs increase the cost of each run.

Max Output Tokens

The maximum number of tokens to generate in the completion. Increase to generate longer responses.

Creativity (aka Sampling Temperature)

Higher values allow the LLM to take more risks. Try values larger than 1 for more creative applications or 0 to ensure that LLM gives the same answer when given the same user input.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't find specific information on growing rice and millet in Senegal. However, for better rice production, you can consider using responsive varieties, developing appropriate mechanization policies, and championing the use of fertilizers as mentioned in the document [2] . Additionally, for millet production, it's important to focus on soil management, provision of inputs, and funding as outlined in the document [3] . If you have any other specific questions about rice or millet farming, feel free to ask!

increasing the stock of combine harvesters.
4.2.3. Supply of processing equipment

The production goals must be accompanied by a program to strengthen
processing units:
the rehabilitation of abandoned rice mills according to need in the
production areas;
establishment of additional sorting, sizing and bleaching equipment with
the aim of introducing quality labeling;
building new rice mills in deprived areas
facilitating access to loans to benefit rice specialists.
4.3 Rainfed rice growing
Considering its socioeconomic importance, rainfed rice farming has received
very little support. Its practice faces enormous challenges and its sustainability is
under threat. To make it play a full role in clearing the cereal deficit, the strategic
axes retained within the framework of the NSDR revolve around the following
points:
fight against salinity and silting up of the lowland;
developing an appropriate intermediate mechanization policy ;
championing the use of fertilizers;
reinforcing training;
introduction of responsive varieties;
development and protection of crop areas within the framework of
preservation and management of resources
setting up appropriate funding mechanisms(micro credit)
rehabilitation of the ISRA station at Djibélor in the south of the country (in
Zinguichor region)

with identifiable problems, specific strategies were developed for each area or
type of rice growing and applied to the following components:
Land planning;
Supply of irrigation equipment;
Funding of production, production and post-harvest equipment
Marketing
Rice growing, whether rainfed or irrigated is a national issue and arouses
growing interest among producers in spite of difficult market conditions. Today,
rice growing brings together professional groups (unions, federations, industry),
different actors (producer organizations, research and advisory institutions,
service providers, processors, traders…) capable of driving the sector’s
development.
The first season (off season and rainy season 2008) of the introduction of the
National Program for Self sufficiency in Rice (NPSR) within the Grand
Agricultural Offensive for Food and Abundance (GAOFA) gave an
unprecedented total production of 500,000 tons of paddy rice, representing 94%
of the fixed target for the first year.
Such a major contribution helped improve rice self sufficiency, which rose from
19% to 40%.
With an estimated budget of 174 billion FCFA for the next three years (2009 to
2011) the movement towards rice self sufficiency, as outlined in the following
steps, will give Senegal –- a major consumer of rice – the status of 'rice
producing country' and satisfy its home demand in rice by 2012.

2008: 364,000 tons of white rice, representing 535,000 tons of paddy
2010: 623,000 tons of white rice, representing 916,320 tons of paddy
2012: 1,000,000 tons of white rice, representing 1,500,000 tons of paddy

agriculture founded on the logic of investment and profit seeking.
There are also two quite distinct types of rice growing: irrigated rice farming in
the Senegal River Valley and in the Anambé basin on the one hand, and the
traditional or rainfed lowland or upland rice farming in the southern regions of
Fatick, Zinguichor, Sédhiou, Kolda, Tambacounda and Kédougou on the other.
The nature of organization and the degree of structuring of the rice sector
depend on the agro-ecological area and the system of production. As such, one
can distinguish the following activities, divided into seven parts:
agricultural and agri-food research (ISRA, WARDA, NIP, IFT,
Universities): introduction of new varieties, production of pre foundation seeds,
soil management, socio economic studies, food promotion, etc.
provision of inputs, agricultural materials and services: service providers
(through crop methods, harvest, shelling and processing), concessionnaires and
manufacturers of equipment, suppliers of inputs (seeds, fertilizers and
phytosanitary products);
funding (NFAL and DFS): seasonal loans, credit for equipment and
marketing, etc;
-

production of paddy (producers) under irrigation and rainfed;

paddy collection (traders, rice specialists and producers themselves);

Processing (rice specialists) by industrial rice specialists, small rice mills,
village-based husking machines or using simple pounders;
marketing of white rice (by private actors, rice specialists, farmer
organizations and producers).
It should however be noted that this degree of organization is mostly found in
the irrigated crop system, and then more frequently in the North of the country
than in any other rice producing areas.

ℹ️ Details

Have you ever wanted to create a bot that you could talk to about anything? Ever wanted to create your own https://dara.network/RadBots or https://Farmer.CHAT? This is how.

This workflow takes a dialog LLM prompt describing your character, a collection of docs & links and optional an video clip of your bot’s face and voice settings.

We use all these to build a bot that anyone can speak to about anything and you can host directly in your own site or app, or simply connect to your Facebook, WhatsApp or Instagram page.

How It Works:

Appends the user's question to the bottom of your dialog script.
Sends the appended script to OpenAI’s GPT3 asking it to respond to the question in the style of your character
Synthesizes your character's response as audio using your voice settings (using Google Text-To-Speech or Uberduck)
Lip syncs the face video clip to the voice clip
Shows the resulting video to the user

PS. This is the workflow that we used to create RadBots - a collection of Turing-test videobots, authored by leading international writers, singers and playwrights - and really inspired us to create Gooey.AI so that every person and organization could create their own fantastic characters, in any personality of their choosing. It's also the workflow that powers https://Farmer.CHAT and was demo'd at the UN General Assembly in April 2023 as a multi-lingual WhatsApp bot for Indian, Ethiopian and Kenyan farmers.
