Our subject
Our subject is
Manage natural resources in a sustainable way.
It comes from the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal
number 12, which is entitled "Responsible consumption and production".
Our research question
The research question we have formulated together is "How could animal farmers optimize their use of water all year long?". The two projects ideas below try to answer that question.
Project 1 · JSP
Context
When? Where? Who? Why? Explain the specific context of your project.
Nowadays, with all the climatic problematics, it's more and more difficult for farmer to have constant access to water. Espcailly for Animals farer, who needs to feed them properly, along with growing crops. Last summer, some Animal farmer in Switzerland have seen themsleves receiveing deliveries of water by helicopter, because they were lacking of it because of the heatwave that happened at that time. Then, our project aims to solve this problematic of not having "unlimited access" to water in order for them to do properly their job. It could be applicable for any gerographical lovcation, as long as this problematic exists.

Target + persona
For whom? Describe the users and beneficiaries of your project, and then suggest a quick persona (refer to Part 2 of the course for methodology tips).
The user of our solution would be the companies that are distributing water in designeted aera. It would help them to understand and quantify the needs of the farmers. The Farmer would therfore benefits from it has they would be provided by the right amount of water in order to manage their activities properly.
Persona
- Gerald, 45 years old
- Living in its farm in the countryside of the south of France. (Provence).
- Framer, income related to its activity and the well being of his animals and crops.
- Gerald has a wife and two kids.
- His hobbies are nature, animals, and new framing technics
- Gerlad would love not to have to be worried about the supply of anything that he needs to run his farm and assure the weel-being of his animals.
- Climate chnage is affecting a lot it's activity, and it's unpredictable.
- Gerald has more and more problems to be always alimented with the right amount of water to feeds its crops and animals. He needs to buy water from other sources to make his fram run properly.
Service offered
What? How? Explain how your solution works, what it enables the user to do, and how is solves the initial issue.
An Ai trained model his able to predict the amount of water needed regarding multiple parameters and data : location, general consumption, weather predictions, number of animals, size of the farm, types of animals, crops, type and repartition....
Features + user flow
Explain what features your project involves and hierarchize them from
the most important one to the least.
Remember: a feature is a verb + a noun, it describes an action that
the user can do.
Then, for your first and most important feature (the key feature), write
down and draw the user flow: what steps will the user have to go
through, from the initial situation to the final situation? Again, refer
to Part 2 of the course for methodological tips.
Features
- Feature 1 (key feature): An AI trained model can predict regarding weather and location and the activity of the farm how much water he would need on a short or long term run
- Feature 2: Able to predict the consumption of water regarding the activity (If gerald buys two more cowsn how would it affect its needs ?)
- Feature 3: Able to be directly in touch with water suppliers to pass orders and be correctly delivered or assured that he could have acces to water.
- ...
User flow
- Initial situation: Gerald wants to know it's needs in water regarding next season parameters (How many animals, which types, crops...)
- Step 1: Gerald goes onto its app
- Step 2: He has a pre-registered profile, where he can enter any parameters regarding its activity, animals, crops, other needs, his lication, the size of the farm, the amount of water he can store, which sources does he normally use etc...
- Step 3: The app is making a prediction with it's trained AI reagring all the parameters to make an estimation of the amount of water needed, the price estimation, .....
- Final situation: Gerald has a define plan of water deliveries and contract with the water suppliers and know exactly how much he will spend for next season, he can organize himslef.

Project 2 · Treat Your Water
Context
When? Where? Who? Why?
During heat wave period, French animal farmers did not have access to unlimited amount of water. On the contrary, governmant limited water aprocurement. Therefore, to avoid this situation, we thought that farmers should create their source of water by collecting rainwater and seawater. Nevertheless, these sources of water could not be used for gain farms or for animals.
The idea is to develop a system that detect if the water is clean or not. If it is not, the system will provide a list of treatment that farmers can easily follow to clean their source. In other words, the system will have to analyse the type of bacteria or molecules implemented in the water and link it to the good treatment. Farmers would have unlimited access to water, reuse not clean water and have an ecological footprint.
Target + persona
For whom?
The main beneficiaries of this project are the farmers, the farm animals and soils.
The main user of this sytem will be French farmers in rainy region. Nevertheless, they will need assistance to use this service, as it is quite technical. Treat Your Water company includes a service that provides the analysis of the water.
Persona
- Marc Besso, 50 years old
- Lives next to his farm, in Finistere, France, where he is closed to the sea. It is a rainning region.
- He is a wheat and pork farmer. His income is close to 70,000€ per year, which is enough for taking care of his farm and live.
- Marc is married. His wife is working as a nurse in the closest hospital of Finistere region.
- Marc spent most of the time taking care of his porks. During free time, he is checking financial trades because he is very interested by investment and stock market.
- One of his big dream is to expand his farm to a bigger market and be able to produce for big corporation such as Aoste, Fleury Michon or Charal.
- Nevertheless, he cannot increase his potential because he doesn't have enough money to invest in the firm. If he buys another pork, he will not have enough natural resource to offer to the animal.
- How could Marc have unlimited access to a source of water instead of paying huge quantity of money each month for it?
Service offered
What? How?
The young startup Treat Your Water has recently invested in new technologies that detect bacteria and bad molecules in different types of waters. With a connected microscope and a AI system, they can analyse drop of a source of water and see if the water is clean or not. If it is not clean, the system provides a list of treatment that could transform the dirty water into a cleaning one.
What Treat Your Water company does is providing their services each month to different beneficiaries such as farmers. They establish a contract with them with montly meeting to analyse their source of water. Indeed, they organize an appointment with one member of the farm, select 5 glasses of water to analyze and give a result in less than 30 minutes. To make sure that the system is giving the best answer, they test it on 5 different drop of water.
Only two members are present during the execution, one is taking care of the microscope and the manipulation done on the microscope and another one is managing the result offered by the system.
Features + user flow
Explain what features your project involves and hierarchize them from
the most important one to the least.
Remember: a feature is a verb + a noun, it describes an action that
the user can do.
Then, for your first and most important feature (the key feature), write
down and draw the user flow: what steps will the user have to go
through, from the initial situation to the final situation? Again, refer
to Part 2 of the course for methodological tips.
Features
- Feature 1 (key feature): Determine water infection
- Feature 2: List different treatment according to the bacteria
- Feature 3: Analyse different types of water
- Feature 4: Help farmers to clean their source of water
User flow
- Initial situation: After 1 month of water collection (rain and sea), Marc has collected enough water for the following month. His meeting with Treat Your Water will happen in the afternoon.
- Step 1: Two members of Treat Your Water collect 5 glasses of water from Marc source of water
- Step 2: The two members install their equipment in a room with two large table, where they can put their connected microscope, the glasses of water with individual droppers inside, and their computer.
- Step 3:One member puts a first drop of water from one glass. The computer analyses that the water is clean
- Step 4:The same member will repeat this step until the last glass. During the second analysis, the computer says that the water is clean again
- Step 5:For the 3rd time, apparently, a bacteria has been detected. The water is not clean
- Step 6:Both members analyse the list of treatment provided by the system. They need to check if it can correspond to the good bacteria
- Step 7:After 20 minutes, Treat Your Water team can explain to Marc that his water is not usable now. He will have to follow this water prescription to make it clean
- Step 8: Finally, Marc is following the prescription and puts the treatment in his source of water.
- Final situation: After 3 days, Marc could now use his source of water and be sure that it is usable and it is not contaminated his breeding.

- Clean Water AI: this project has been developed by Peter Ma. This objective was to create a map of clean water in an specific area. He needed to test each source of water and indicate in the map if the water was clean or not. The technology used by Peter Ma is totally similar to the one we are using for this project
