Farming is Dying – Can AI and AgTech Save It?

Farming is Dying – Can AI and AgTech Save It?

The global food supply is on the brink of crisis. Facing challenges like an aging workforce, labor shortages, declining crop yields, and climate change amongst others, farming is in dire need of a lifeline. AI and AgTech are emerging as the saviors of agriculture, transforming everything from crop breeding to farm-to-table traceability. These revolutionary technologies promise to enhance sustainability, improve yields, and reduce environmental impact. With the urgency for innovation greater than ever, AI is the essential lifeline the agricultural industry needs to secure a resilient and efficient future.

Drones to Robot Farm Hands, AI Transforms Agriculture

From detecting pests to predicting which crops will deliver the best returns, artificial intelligence can help humanity oppose one of its biggest challenges: feeding an additional 2 billion people by 2050 without harming the planet. AI is steadily emerging as an essential part of the agricultural industry’s technological evolution including self-driving machinery and flying robots that are able to automatically survey and treat crops.
