Maria Zepeda shares the power of people plus precision ag technology to help farmers make informed decisions about operations.
Saving Water, Growing More: Muni Swamy Rao's Success with Drip Irrigation
With the precise and efficient delivery of water to the plant roots, his crop health significantly improved - leading to a yield of 21 tonnes, compared to the 17.5 tonnes he previously harvested with traditional irrigation.
From Streets to Fields: Unitree's Go2 Steps into Smart Farming
Recently, Unitree partnered with a leading agricultural research institution to promote the application of robotics in agricultural scenarios, supporting the transformation of traditional farming toward digitalization and intelligent operations.
MSU researchers to explore viability of agriculture, solar power generation together in Michigan
Agrivoltaics systems place solar arrays in agricultural fields alongside farming operations. MSU researchers are exploring the benefits and drawbacks of this technology that's new to Michigan.
Bonsai Robotics Acquires farm-ng to Lead the Future of Autonomous Farming
This strategic combination brings together two of agtech's most advanced and innovative companies with a shared vision to deliver powerful AI solutions that tackle the labor, cost, and efficiency challenges growers face today.
How AI-Powered Farm ERP Systems Are Revolutionizing Decision-Making for Modern Farmers
Unravel how AI-powered farm ERP systems enable farms to optimize their operations, and why AgriERP provides a powerful, scalable solution.
What Agriculture Can Glean from the World's Fastest-Scaling Companies
The most successful companies in the world aren't choosing between building or buying technology. From fast food and finance to media and manufacturing-leaders are scaling faster by outsourcing execution.
Fields of Expectation | Rethinking Precision Agriculture
Our intent with this blog isn't to diminish the vision of precision agriculture; instead, it's to foster clarity, realism, and optimism to motivate farmers and ag-tech developers to continue pursuing the notion of precision on a global scale.
Enhance Farm Resilience With Agricultural Microgrids
Rural areas nationwide are most susceptible to outdated grid infrastructure and prolonged downtime as utility companies struggle to restore power. Microgrids - localized energy systems - could be a viable solution.
Agritech Is Helping Farmers Adapt to Climate Change and Severe Weather - Here's How

Changes in weather patterns and global temperatures heavily affect how farmers grow necessary crops. However, emerging tools like agritech are helping producers adapt and work with these changes, ensuring humanity's access to food and raw materials.
Retrofitting Existing Machinery with Autonomy
This approach lets farmers deploy multiple autonomous systems for the cost of one traditional machine. That creates flexibility without tying up capital in one massive investment. It's called redundancy.
The GreenBot autonomous system completes successful field trials for sustainable woody crop protection
The robotic vehicle integrates artificial intelligence, autonomous navigation, and machine vision to identify and treat weeds with pinpoint accuracy, reducing the use of herbicides in crops such as olive, citrus, and almond trees
Beyond the Barcode: Why RFID is the Backbone of the Future Food Chain

In food logistics, RFID isn't a "nice-to-have," it's becoming non-negotiable because food safety should be non-negotiable, too.
RFS 2.0: New Biofuel Rules and the Road Ahead for Refiners, Farmers and Ethanol Producers
.jpg)
Soybean and corn farmers could see the most encouraging outcome, experiencing a positive price catalyst. Soybean oil (biodiesel feedstock) prices surged on the news of the proposed rule, and corn ethanol programs historically raised corn prices by 12-30%, benefitting farmers
Tractor Performance Data Sets? Keys to Achieving Max Power Utilization
Maria Zepeda shares tractor performance evaluations from the field through the John Deere Operations Center to help farmers understand their tractors' engine power utilization and why "more horsepower" isn't always the answer.
