This article explores how data-driven technology is reshaping the agriculture industry, paving the way for a more sustainable and efficient future.

Can Self-Driving Trucks Reduce Costs and Increase Productivity in Agriculture?

Without having to stop for bathroom breaks, naps or a chance to stretch, autonomous semi-trucks will surely play a role in the future of agriculture regarding shipping. These vehicles are still a tailpipe dream, but how might they affect farming someday?

Chicken Farming with Solar Energy

System Designer Francisco Blasco and his team at Iser Smart Energy, who worked in partnership with Bet Solar faced considerable challenges in calculating the energy needs of the plant - not least because there are so few examples of this kind of installation on this scale.

AI-powered Laserweeding: A New Tool for Weed Control

The LaserWeeder is a pull-behind robot that seamlessly attaches to the back of tractors. LaserWeeder combines AI, computer vision software, deep learning models and lasers to identify weeds and target them for elimination.

Valmont Records Longest BVLOS Drone Flight on the Wings of T-Mobile 5G

The Un-carrier helps Valmont capture mission-critical data in industry-first beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drone inspection operation

Fieldin Partners With Fruitspec to Provide Yield Inventory Technology to Apple Growers in the Pacific Northwest

FruitSpec's innovative technologies automatically track fruit sizes and quantities throughout the growing season so growers, packing houses and sales desks can better align fruit inventories to meet market demands.

UGA awarded $4 million to design farm of the future

The long-term goal of the 4-D Farm is to develop climate-smart production systems leveraging renewable energy, automation, intelligence and human capital to meet the required food and fiber needs of a burgeoning world population.

Is Climate Change Impacting the Growth of Commercial Agriculture?

It is important to remember that technology should be viewed as a tool that can be used to optimize or improve the situation. What it isn't, however, is a free pass to continue implementing unsustainable practices.

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.

Particularly small and cost-effective: Market launch of the uEye XLS cameras

Particularly small and cost-effective: Market launch of the uEye XLS cameras

Image processing opens up a wide range of possibilities for the automation of modern agriculture - but what to do when only a small budget is available? That is where the uEye XLS comes in. With the launch of these super-small industrial cameras, even price-sensitive applications and volume projects become feasible. Measuring just 29 x 29 x 7 mm, the compact cameras offer excellent imaging characteristics without excessive heat generation, making them a perfect fit for embedded vision applications in agricultural machinery and equipment. The industrial cameras comply with the vision standard and are available with Micro-B connectors and with or without C/CS or S-mount lens holders, further increasing their adaptability to different agricultural environments. Thanks to these features, the cameras offered by IDS Imaging Development Systems lower the barriers to entry and make it easier to explore the potential of vision technology to optimize agricultural processes.
