A.P. CM orders satellite survey for crop mapping to ensure better income of farmers
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has asked the officials to conduct a comprehensive satellite-based survey to map crop patterns across all survey numbers in the State. In a review meeting on agriculture on Tuesday (July 22, 2025), Mr. Naidu emphasised the need to modernise agriculture with advanced technologies, artificial intelligence, and satellite data to ensure accurate information for policy-making. The satellite survey initiated in Bikkavolu mandal of East Godavari district provided encouraging results. The Chief Minister instructed the officials to cross-verify this satellite data with field-level inputs and guide farmers to cultivate similar crops in clusters for better yield and profitability. He also emphasised updating agricultural records following the completion of land resurvey and purification of revenue records. The Chief Minister insisted on monitoring crop health in real time using 42 standard parameters. Groundwater recharge structures should aim for 1,000 tmc ft storage. He ordered desilting of canals and coordinated efforts between the agriculture and water resources departments. Drones should be deployed widely in agriculture and other allied sectors, he said, adding that drones can simplify farming operations and have potential applications across 15 sectors. Reviewing the integration of an AI chatbot to assist farmers with crop planning and value addition, he stressed providing timely and accessible information to farmers using AI tools. The Chief Minister raised concerns over excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, saying that it was deteriorating soil health and causing cancer. He called for awareness campaigns and strict monitoring of input use. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) systems should be adopted to minimise dependency of chemincals, he said. Mr. Naidu announced that he would soon conduct virtual meetings with water user associations to understand their issues and plan water distribution effectively. Organic certification He emphasised organic certification to increase product demand and income for farmers. He approved a partnership with the Tata group for organic certification and highlighted export potential to countries such as Japan and Taiwan. Produce with certifications like NPOP and IndiaGAP can be exported to over 130 countries, he said. Mr. Naidu appreciated the products developed by 'Coco Munj', a company that manufactures coconut-based products. Agriculture Minister K. Atchannaidu and senior officials of related departments were present in the meeting.

Catchpoint Launches Breakthrough AI Monitoring to Safeguard Next-Gen Digital Workflows
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Catchpoint, the global leader in Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM), today announced powerful new capabilities—Performance and Resilience Monitoring for AI Assistants and Agentic AI systems—to proactively ensure uptime, speed, and reliability for mission-critical AI-driven workflows. Leveraging a track record of monitoring AI infrastructures in collaboration with top-tier technology innovators, Catchpoint offers a unique, industry-leading capability to monitor the full internet stack—going beyond surface metrics to diagnose issues deep within APIs, protocols and technologies. These new features empower organizations to proactively monitor both Agentic AI systems and AI-powered assistants with confidence. As organizations rapidly adopt generative and agentic AI technologies, such as Microsoft Copilot, OpenAI's ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google Gemini, and IBM watsonx, business-critical workflows become increasingly dependent on the uninterrupted performance of AI systems. Any latency, outage, or disruption can severely impact customer experiences and business outcomes —as seen during a recent OpenAI outage which resulted in many systems becoming unresponsive or slow. In the case of this incident, Catchpoint helped a major tech brand detect it and take corrective measures before it escalated, avoiding business impact. Moreover, according to the Internet Resilience Report 2025, 57% of organizations recognize immediately when AI supporting their critical Tier 1 applications becomes unavailable or slower. However, 27% of companies only become aware of such issues when users complain. "AI can't fail quietly—and yet, in many organizations, it still does," the report emphasizes. Catchpoint's new capabilities ensure immediate visibility into AI performance, enabling proactive management of disruptions to protect business continuity and customer experience. AI Assistant Reliability Monitoring This solution enables organizations to proactively detect and resolve issues affecting AI APIs, LLMs, and chatbots. Key capabilities include: Global API reachability: Test AI endpoints from key global regions to rapidly detect DNS, routing, or regional outages from thousands of intelligent agents in over 100 countries. Latency baselines: Continuously track response times to catch slowdowns before user experiences degrade. Synthetic prompt monitoring: Simulate real-world interactions to validate response accuracy and consistency. Uptime and error detection: Instantly alert on API downtime, errors, overload conditions, or malformed responses. Visual dependency mapping: Get the full context of the entire system or application to understand any component that may be impacting user experience, not only AI. Agentic AI Resilience Monitoring Designed specifically for complex, autonomous AI workflows that rely on multiple external dependencies, the new capability delivers full-stack visibility and observability across APIs, networks, cloud services, and third-party tools. Features include: Third-party API Monitoring: Track stability and latency of critical cloud services, SaaS APIs, and databases. Multi-hop Dependency Visibility: Trace the root cause of cascading failures across complex AI workflows. CI/CD Monitoring Automation: Automatically integrate monitoring into CI/CD pipelines to test changes in AI infrastructure. Cloud Region Resilience: Identify and mitigate risks associated with specific cloud region disruptions and performance issues. Global performance testing: from anywhere in the global observability network or private intelligent agents deployed in key locations, data centers, or offices. 'AI assistants and agentic agents are only as reliable as the networks and APIs they depend on,' said Mehdi Daoudi, CEO of Catchpoint. 'Our new capabilities give organizations the visibility they need to ensure AI resilience, reduce downtime, and deliver exceptional digital experiences, enabling IT organizations to innovate as they build the future.'

Former Iranian Deputy FM Mohammad-Javad Larijani Threatens: A Drone Can Hit Trump in the Bellybutton While He Is Sunbathing at Mar-a-Lago; Macron Could Be Hit While Partying at a Discotheque
Former Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Mohammad-Javad Larijani warned in a June 21, 2025 interview on IRINN TV (Iran) that Israel and the U.S. do not have a monopoly on MAV technology, and that he could be targeted by an MAV while sunbathing at Mar-a-Lago. Larijani went on to warn French President Macron that he too could be targeted by an MAV while out partying at a discotheque. He said that while Iranians fight 'like real men' and therefore don't use such technologies, Trump has 'more than only a handful' of enemies in America, and even amateur MAV users could choose to 'rip his stomach open.' Larijani, who has served in several senior positions in Iran, is currently the Director of Iran's Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences (IPM).
