Agriculture is becoming an information-intensive industry. A modern farm may generate data from tractors, drones, satellites, soil sensors, weather stations, irrigation systems, livestock monitors, farm-management […]

Smart irrigation is often presented as a straightforward agricultural technology problem. A farmer installs soil-moisture sensors, connects a controller, receives information about crop water requirements […]

Most farm connectivity problems have the same cause. The places where a farmer most needs data, such as a far pasture, a borehole pump or […]

Precision agriculture has moved far beyond tractor guidance and yield monitors. Modern farm data platforms can combine machinery records, field boundaries, soil information, satellite imagery, […]

Controlled-environment agriculture, or CEA, is often presented through one familiar picture: a brightly lit vertical farm inside an urban warehouse, producing lettuce close to consumers. […]

Nanosensors are becoming one of the most interesting technologies in precision agriculture. They can help detect soil nutrients, moisture, contaminants, plant hormones, pathogens and physiological […]

Food traceability sounds simple until a real product begins moving through the supply chain. A bag of rice, carton of tomatoes, bottle of olive oil […]

Crop-health monitoring is no longer a simple choice between looking at a field from the ground or buying a satellite image. Farmers and agricultural researchers […]

Smart irrigation has become one of the most discussed applications of agricultural technology. Soil-moisture sensors can detect changing conditions, controllers can automate valves, weather data […]
