agri-00023 | What role does fish mobility play in the rice-fish farming system according to the study? | Manage water depth and field structure to ensure fish move freely throughout the paddy, because this mobility drives pest control, weed suppression, nutrient cycling, and soil oxygenation. When fish roam actively across the submerged soil and through the rice hills, they physically disturb the sediment and consume biol... | agri_crop_ai4agr | Crop Management | CC-BY-NC-4.0 | ai4agr_crop |
agri-00024 | My Debao ponies in Debao County are showing signs of coughing and loss of appetite during the spring season. What can I do to treat this and prevent it from spreading? | Isolate the coughing ponies from the healthy herd immediately and move them to a dry, well-ventilated shelter away from wind and rain. Spring in Debao County brings fluctuating temperatures and high humidity, which weaken respiratory defenses and allow pathogens to thrive, making quick isolation the most effective firs... | agri_synth_cot | Biotic Diseases | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00025 | My chilli plants in central India are showing dark, sunken lesions on the fruits during the monsoon season. What can I do to control this? | Remove all infected fruits from the plants and ground immediately, then apply a protective fungicide spray like Copper Oxychloride or Mancozeb within 24 hours. This stops the fungal spores from spreading to healthy fruits via rain splash and wind. High humidity during the monsoon allows the disease to move rapidly, so ... | agri_synth_cot | Biotic Diseases | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00026 | My moringa plants in Tamil Nadu are showing yellowing leaves and stunted growth during the monsoon season. What could be causing this and how can I treat it? | Open drainage channels around your field immediately to remove standing water, and drench the root zone with Carbendazim 50% WP at 2 grams per liter of water. Waterlogging during the monsoon suffocates moringa's taproot system and invites fungal pathogens that block nutrient uptake. Draining excess water restores oxyge... | agri_synth_cot | Biotic Diseases | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00027 | I'm growing soybeans in central Iowa during the R3 growth stage and noticed yellowing leaves with irregular brown spots. What should I do? | Get into the field today to scout the lower canopy and dig up plants to inspect root health. R3 is the critical window for pod retention, so protecting healthy leaf area now directly influences seed fill and final bushels per acre. Early diagnosis distinguishes between treatable fungal issues and management-only issues... | agri_synth_cot | Biotic Diseases | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00028 | I grow soybeans in the Pannonian Basin during summer, and my fields are flooded in early July. I noticed some floating weeds like watermilfoil and cattails taking over the water. How can I manage these weeds without harming my soybean crop? | Prioritize immediate water removal. You must drain the field within 24 to 48 hours to prevent root asphyxiation and permanent yield loss. Soybeans cannot survive prolonged submersion during early flowering, and the presence of aquatic weeds indicates the water depth and duration are already critical for crop survival.

Apply a protective fungicide like Mancozeb at 2 grams per liter of water as soon as... | agri_kcc | Biotic Insects | GODL-India | kcc_datagovin |
agri-00032 | I'm growing soybeans in central Illinois during early July, and my soil is clay loam. I noticed some yellowing in the lower leaves. Can I apply ammonium sulfate as a foliar spray to correct the deficiency? | No, do not apply ammonium sulfate as a foliar spray to correct this issue. This approach carries a high risk of leaf burn and is unlikely to address the root cause of the yellowing.
**Diagnosis**
Yellowing on the lower, older leaves indicates a mobile nutrient deficiency because the plant is translocating nutrients fr... | agri_synth_cot | Crop Inputs | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00033 | Asked about doses of fertilizer for two years old coconut plant? | Apply a total of 300 grams of Nitrogen, 150 grams of Phosphorus, and 300 grams of Potash per palm for the entire year, split into two equal doses applied during the onset of the Southwest monsoon in June and again in September before the rains taper off. Since your palms are two years old, they are transitioning from e... | agri_kcc | Crop Inputs | GODL-India | kcc_datagovin |
agri-00034 | My sheep in western Kenya are losing weight and showing signs of weakness after grazing in a new area with tall shrubs. What plant could be causing this and how can I prevent it? | Move the sheep out of the new grazing area immediately and isolate the weakest animals in a shaded shelter with clean water and dry hay. This stops further toxin intake, reduces stress on the liver and digestive system, and prevents trampling. Weight loss and weakness after grazing shrubland in western Kenya strongly p... | agri_synth_cot | Biotic Diseases | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00035 | I'm growing cotton in southern Alabama and noticed a lot of stink bug activity in my fields during early July. The plants are in the square formation stage, and I'm seeing some browning and shriveling of the squares. What should I do? | Confirm the true cause of square damage before spraying. While stink bugs are present, the browning and shriveling of squares is a classic symptom of plant bug feeding. Stink bugs typically target developing bolls rather than squares. You must distinguish between normal physiological shed, which can reach 10 to 20 perc... | agri_synth_cot | Biotic Insects | CC-BY-4.0 | qwen3-14b |
agri-00036 | How did the FACE system operate to maintain elevated CO2 levels during the rice growth season? | To maintain elevated carbon dioxide levels during the rice growth season, a FACE system uses a circular ring of vertical vent pipes and a computer-controlled feedback loop to release pure CO2 into the open air without enclosing the crop. This allows the rice to grow under natural sunlight, rain, and pests while experie... | agri_crop_ai4agr | Crop Management | CC-BY-NC-4.0 | ai4agr_crop |
agri-00037 | Farmer needs information regarding control of Bacterial wilt in Tomato ? | **Immediate Action Plan**

AgriGround: Agronomic Advisory Instruction Set (26,032 examples)
A provenance-tracked agronomic advisory instruction set for training small open models to give
practical, crop-safe farm advice. Co-optimized with Adaptive Data (Adaption Labs) and used to
train AgriReason-4B (a LoRA adaptation of Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B). On a held-out slice of this
distribution, AgriReason is preferred 89.0% (tie-allowed) / 92.4% (forced-choice) over its
base in blind pairwise judging. See the model card for the full evaluation protocol.
TL;DR (quality at a glance)
- 26,032 rows, every row tagged with
shard,license,source, andcategory(full provenance). - Crop-safety gated: advice recommending a product that would injure the stated crop is rejected by a rule-based gate (expert spot-audited).
- Weak-category weighted (~80%): deliberately concentrated where Day-0 measurement showed base models weakest (weeds, insects, disease, inputs, management), not on easy categories.
- Decontaminated against public agronomy benchmarks (no shared 8-grams); deduplicated (MinHash).
- Open-licensed sources only (FAO AGRIS, India Kisan Call Centre, AI4Agr CROP, USDA public-domain);
no raw web scraping. Multi-license compilation, per-row
licensepreserved. - Proven: the model trained on this set beats its base 89%/92.4% on held-out data (blind).
- Live demo: https://huggingface.co/spaces/Jainamshahhh/agrireason-demo
Design principles
- Weak-category weighted (~80%). Biotic weeds/insects/diseases, crop inputs, and crop management, where Day-0 measurement showed base models weakest, dominate the set; abiotic soil/harvest/weather (base strengths) are downsampled.
- Crop-safety gated. A rule-based gate rejects advice recommending a product for a crop it would injure (for example graminicides over cereals, unqualified glyphosate over a standing conventional crop, imidazolinone herbicides outside tolerant crops). Verified by expert spot-audit.
- Decontaminated. No row shares an 8-gram (or high 4-gram overlap) with the AgReason evaluation set, which is used only as an external anchor.
- Fully attributed. Every row carries
shard,license, andsource.

Schema
{"id": "...", "prompt": "...", "completion": "...", "shard": "agri_synth_cot", "category": "...", "license": "CC-BY-4.0", "source": "qwen3-14b"}
prompt/completion are the Adaptive-Data-enhanced advisory pairs used in training (original
farmer-style prompt mapped to the enhanced expert answer).
Licensing
Overall: CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0 (the most restrictive component governs the compilation; the CROP shard
is CC-BY-NC-4.0). This is a multi-license compilation; each row keeps its own license field.
Re-distributors must preserve the per-row provenance and the attributions below.
Curation methodology
- Open-licensed sources only (no raw web scraping): FAO AGRIS ODS, India KCC (GODL), AI4Agr CROP, USDA public-domain extension bulletins.
- Grounded synthetic generation: an open-weights model (
Qwen/Qwen3-14B) writes AgReason-style scenario questions (crop + region/season/symptom), chain-of-thought, and a concrete recommendation, grounded in a source passage. Answers stay within the passage; a fabrication guard rejects invented numbers. - Quality + safety gates: length, anti-hedging, crop-safety, on-topic (drops academic/scheme/ garbled text), English-language, then AgReason decontamination and MinHash dedup.
- Adaptive Data co-optimization under an agronomy-advisor blueprint (direct actionable advice, crop-safe, no hedging), with hallucination mitigation on.
Intended use & limitations
Instruction-tuning small models for agronomic advisory. The agri_kcc shard includes real
farmer-advisory exchanges that answered time- and place-specific questions (local weather, market
prices); models trained on it may reproduce such confident-but-unverifiable answers, so downstream
users should gate or filter those. Not a substitute for local extension services or product labels.
The synthetic and KCC shards are silver-standard. AgReason evaluation items are excluded from training.
