Science continues to explore new ways to make agriculture more efficient in the modern world, taking a thorough approach to research and leaving nothing off of the table, including the impact of climate change. Here, we talk with Partha Banerjee, PhD,...
To say that genetically modified (GM) crops have met past resistance from campaigners is an understatement. Might the potential environmental benefits of GM crops prove a tipping point?
Canada-based precision ag-tech and clean-tech company CO2 GRO has agreed a Technology Adaptation Project (TAP) with a major US greenhouse lettuce grower to investigate how it can impact lettuce yield, product quality, CO2 savings, and overall financial...
While the precision agriculture sector is a hotbed of innovation to maximise critical inputs, such as land, water, fuel, fertilizer, and pesticides, how strong is the evidence that it improves sustainability and, just as crucially, maximises yields?
A new high-tech facility in Narrabri, New South Wales (NSW), is seeking to strengthen Australia’s food security by focusing on agtech to increase crop resilience and boost the productivity of farmers.
New Zealand-based AIMER Farming is seeking to make precision technology and artificial intelligence (AI) more user-friendly for dairy farmers to optimise their operations.
A better and more efficient use of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) fertilisers is urgently needed to address food security and environmental problems, with new technologies vital to improve outcomes.
Hyperspectral remote sensing images from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be used to develop a ‘more rigorous and scientific’ health assessment model to aid precision agriculture strategies, say researchers.
