Digital agriculture
Print Edition
Do you know how digital farming is revolutionizing the future of food? By 2050, the world population will be 9.6 billion. Calories per person will increase by 30 percent. We will need to increase food production by 50 percent. These are challenges for our society, and this is why digital agriculture is essential.
Agriculture started a long time ago: From infant farming to digital agriculture, we have experienced thousands of years. For example, farmers in the past had to use mules and cattles to plough their field, that was too slow and inefficient. The farmers also had to water and fertilize by their hands, and they did not know how much water and chemical fertilizer should be applied on one mu of field. The mostly time farmers rely oh the weather. Looking forward to a good year. For a better life people work hard to find a better way. With now technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data, smart agriculture is expected to bring about essential changes to traditional agriculture in our society.
For example: There is a group called Modern Agriculture Platform, which offers a wide range of services to growers who want to increase their crop yields and quality. Farmers who join the MAP group receive visits from agronomists who advise them what to plant, teach them haw to grow their crops scientifically and provide them access to consumers, making life much easier for them and helping to increase incomes. With MAP鈥檚 free crop monitoring app, farmers can also keep an eye on their fields.
Agriculture of our society is seeing transformation from a traditional production mode to smart agriculture.
