Purdue agrivoltaic farming structures and software harvest solar power at lower cost and with minimal impact on crop yield
Innovative modules created at the College of Agriculture and College of Engineering are mounted low and rotate to allow farm equipment to pass
The Role of AI and Machine Learning in Advancing Sustainable Biologicals in Agriculture
AI and machine learning solutions can help identify new microbial strains with beneficial agricultural properties, marking them as good candidates to improve biologicals such as biopesticides, biofertilizers, and biostimulants.
Purdue biology innovation allows the introduction of valuable traits in plants without creating transgenic plants
Patent-pending novel Agrobacterium strains deliver transfer DNA to a plant's nucleus without integrating it into the genome
How Cameras Enable Vision in New-age Agricultural Robots
Embedded vision has been transforming agriculture by enabling autonomous mobile robots to 'see' their environment for the purposes of picking & harvesting, plowing, weed & bug detection, etc.
Right to Repair Finally on the Way for Farmers
In April 2023, Colorado became the first state to pass a right-to-repair law for agricultural equipment. Farmers previously had to take their broken tractors, combines and other machinery to a certified service provider or wait days for a servicer to arrive.
Decreasing Soil Tillage May Reduce Carbon Release
Decreasing soil tillage can reduce carbon emissions. Reducing these greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture can help combat climate change and lead to a more sustainable agricultural system - and ultimately a more sustainable environment.
How Synthetic Data will Revolutionize Agriculture
Synthetic data is not a replacement for original data, but a secondary source, one that can reduce the time, cost, and effort in obtaining original data. It offers great potential in reducing the time and investment of bringing new agricultural products to market.
AGRI-TECH INNOVATOR TESTS IMAGING DETECTION TECHNOLOGY DURING EXTENDED POTATO SEASON
The TuberScan system comprises of a bespoke ground penetrating radar (GPR) system, GPS units and in-field and remote sensors, backed up by computer vision and AI, which provide detailed information on potato crop growth characteristics and performance.
Agri-robotics - the Smart Future of Agriculture
Seeds are individually and precisely placed; fruits carefully picked by mechanical grippers; fertilizers and plant products applied in small doses in a targeted manner. These operations require a large number of small electric motors that are both robust and powerful.
Making biological crop amendments the new normal
A biological, alternative crop amendment identifies a plant's natural resistance to environmental stressors such as pests and weather, and amplifies that quality to create an environmentally friendly substitute for synthetic products.
XAG Drone Eyes Widespread Use in Vietnam's Banana and Durian Farming
Farm Krong Pack turns to the XAG P100 drone, which can adjust droplet size to different micron level, together with the RTK centimeter-level navigation system to achieve precision spraying. The application of drone helped reduce 80% water, 70% pesticide, and 60% fertilizer.
Intersolar Europe: Agrivoltaics - Harvesting Solar Power
The session "Agricultural PV in France and Germany: Potential, Business Models and Best Practice" on June 15 at 3:20pm CEST at the Intersolar Forum will be presenting an extensive overview of solutions and applications that already work.
6 Types of Greenhouse Poly Film Coverings
Every grower strives to produce the best crop they can while keeping production costs to a minimum. The covering overhead is a major component, and when extras are added - anti-condensate, thermal capabilities, or bee compatibility - grower costs start to rise.
How to Ensure Freshness from Farm to Fork
With advancements in supply chain resources and quality control measures, the AgTech industry has the potential to revolutionize how we think about fresh produce.
Startup Sprouts Multitasking Farm Tool for Organics
Verdant runs on the NVIDIA Jetson edge AI platform and relies on TAO Toolkit's transfer learning to boost model production by 5x.
