How IoT Enhances Pest Control on Large-Scale Farms

As climate change ramps up and large-scale growers face increasing challenges to maintain adequate food supplies, IoT will continue to be at the forefront of insect mitigation efforts. Here's how IoT is improving pest control on commercial farms.

How to Fight Back Against the Food Chain Climate Catastrophe

While there are a myriad of reasons why farming and delivering food is more challenging than ever before, treatment-resistant insects, disease (fungus) and weeds are primary contributors to the problem.

What are the Realistic Expectations for Biopesticides to Replace Synthetics in Commercial Agriculture?

As the spotlight shines on biopesticide development more than ever before, it is important to consider the fact that incorporating these - ideally - ecofriendly methods of pest control encompass more than simply embracing green alternatives.

Building the Business Case for Conservation Agriculture and Redefining Our Approach to Feeding the World

The large commercial farming operations are clearly of the opinion that conservation agriculture, which targets a considerable reduction in inorganic fertilizer and pesticides, is a fringe food option.

AI Enhancing Nanotechnology in Agriculture: A Leap Forward in Sustainable Farming

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into nanotechnology is revolutionizing agriculture, offering unprecedented opportunities to enhance crop productivity, pest control, and environmental sustainability

Wright Electric and CT Axter Aerospace Successfully Complete Maiden Flight of 800 kW Hybrid-Electric Crop Duster Aircraft, Wright Achieves 1.2 MW in Electric Propulsion Unit

"Not only will this be a monumental move for the agricultural sector, but successes like these are important for the aviation industry as a whole as we continue our work to develop and deploy a suite of technology solutions to decarbonize."

Is IPM the Next Big Focus for AgTech?

It's just another intersection of integrated pest management (IPM) and AgTech. As technology expands to include gene editing, AI and laser beams, farmers have a new suite of pest management tools in their arsenal.

Drones Revolutionizing Weed Management and Crop Care

Drones can broadcast chemicals over entire fields or apply them to specific plants with remarkable accuracy. Fixed-wing planes take a clumsy approach - as the product leaves the tank in a hazy cloud, much of it blows beyond the pasture's edge.

Employing VOCs as an Eco-Friendly Solution for Crop Production and Protection in 2023

The risk of pests spreading diseases and unwanted weeds decreases because of pesticides and herbicides. However, these chemicals often contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

What Will Pest Management Look Like in the Future?

Most farmers would probably agree that pest monitoring and management is an ever-evolving practice that requires undivided attention to both your crops and trends in the pest space. That's because insects are constantly evolving.

Tech Innovations Protecting the Agriculture Industry from Invasive Species

Invasive species pose a major threat to this industry because they can quickly redefine entire ecosystems. Many companies are developing tech solutions to eliminate invasive species and protect yields.

How AI Driven Pest Monitoring Can Benefit Organic Farmers

When it comes to certified organic systems, pest monitoring and management is paramount to a successful operation. Unlike traditional farms that have access to a bevy of specialized pesticides that can typically be utilized as needed, organic farmers aren't so fortunate.

AgriTech Provides a More Precise Approach to Pest Management

Intensifying agriculture using current farming methods will only amplify the harmful effects it has on the environment. Advances in agricultural technology may provide alternative farming methods that are less damaging and more productive.

MagGrow System helps Fate Sparrow Farm Improve Spray Coverage with Significant Chemical Savings

Before using MagGrow, Sparrow could cover an average of 500 acres a day. Now, he can cover 800-1,000 acres in the same amount of time.

Selecting the Correct Material for Spray Nozzles: 8 Modern Options

The type of nozzle used affects both the amount of material applied to a particular area and how uniform the overall spray is, the amount of coverage, and the drift that could occur due to the nozzle.
