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.
Using AI, Robotics and Plant Science to Grow Better More Sustainable Produce
With the support of computer vision that captures 3D images of each and every grow module and data science, we are understanding how our production systems are interacting with our crops and how we can improve those interactions.
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.
Racking for Vertical Farming Saves Spatial Requirements for Harbor Farmz
Originally, Ward estimated that he would need a facility with around 90,000 square feet, but with the right vertical racking he was able to cut his spatial requirements by nearly two-thirds.
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.
Could the Energy Crisis Power a Renewable Future for the Indoor Farming Industry?
Price instability has sent shock-waves through the CEA community, with a few even questioning its viability. But we don't think this is the end, far from it. This could be the driving force for changes akin those seen after the 1970's twin oil shocks.
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.
CubicFarms and Deloitte Join Forces on New Carbon Commercialization Program
HydroGreen's commercial scale Automated Vertical Pastures™ technology helps meet increasing demand for valuable farm-based inset and offset carbon credits from all manner of organizations with net-zero goals.
Satellite IoT is the Key to Success in Precision Agriculture
Utilizing precision ag would significantly reduce the agriculture industry's environmental impact, which currently accounts for around a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions.
Agrivoltaics: The New Frontier
The pairing of photovoltaics and agriculture is something that must be further explored, including more supportive legislation and regulations allowing for this dual use of land.
What Is the Future of UK Vertical Farming?
With so many variables and Mother Nature becoming more unpredictable, our horticultural experts continue to field an increasing number of enquiries for controlled growing environments.
With the Power of Autonomous Iron, Caterpillar Pulls Off the Ultimate Trick Shot in Cat Trial 12: No Hands
On a field in the middle of the Arizona desert, a soccer legend and autonomous Cat® machines use proven technology to conquer challenging obstacle courses and score a major goal in the name of safety and efficiency.
How Farm Automation Creates New Demand for Technological Skills
Today, farmers are looking to the sky not for rain to come but for their drones to seed the crops or spray the soil. Technology in agriculture is on its way. Over the next few years, it will create huge demand for new technological skills among farmers.
