What Technology is Needed to Properly Develop and Maintain Soil Health
At its best, soil is an ecosystem filled with fungi, healthy bacteria and organic matter. Healthy soil protects plants from pests, reduces weed growth and sustains healthy crops year after year.
Examining the Environmental Implications of Biofuel
Most farm equipment either uses diesel or fossil-fuel-derived electricity, so transitioning to biofuels as an alternate fuel source could have several environmental benefits.
How Can Smart Technology Benefit Vertical Farms?
Smart technology can benefit many industries and application areas. IoT (specifically sensors), smart systems used to control and monitor conditions, drones, and predictive analytics are all hugely beneficial, particularly for the vertical farming sector.
Leveraging Data Analytics for Higher Agricultural Yields
Agricultural yields must improve, but farms can't expand the way they have for much of their history. The solution to this problem is data analytics.
Decarbon8 Investment Opportunity Open for AgTech Innovation and Decarbonization Startups
The Decarbon8 Fund announced a new Request for Proposal (RFP) for companies advancing regenerative agriculture solutions that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental impacts.
Advancing Automation Technology Could Help Vertical Farms Achieve Profitability, Finds IDTechEx
By using extensive sensor networks for monitoring crops and growing systems, vertical farms can optimize their workflow by helping operators efficiently pinpoint problems. This would serve to reduce labor complexities and thus manpower required.
Automated drones could scare birds off agricultural fields
In the future, cameras could spot blackbirds feeding on grapes in a vineyard and launch drones to drive off the avian irritants, then return to watch for the next invading flock. All without a human nearby.
