Purdue researchers acquire and analyze data through AI network that predicts maize yield

Crawford's long-term goal is to incorporate genetic markers more meaningfully into the neural network and add more complex traits into their dataset. Accomplishing this will reduce labor costs while more effectively providing growers with the information.

How to Secure Your Farm Surveillance Cameras

The presence of surveillance cameras may often be enough to deter potential crime. However, these systems also need protection from both physical threats and cyberattacks.

New tool helps users track fruit-plant readiness for growing season

Growers now can more closely monitor accumulated chilling hours, an important factor that tracks how long fruit plants have been exposed to an ideal range of cool temperatures throughout the dormant season.

IRIDESENSE UNVEILS THE WORLD'S FIRST LASER DEVICE CAPABLE OF ANALYZING PLANT HEALTH REMOTELY

A global pioneer in 3D SWIR Multispectral perception, IRIDESENSE is unveiling a new LiDAR sensor at CES 2024, allowing real-time remote analysis of plants health and soil humidity, revolutionizing water management and plants care in agriculture

Ripening Fruit in Ripening Chambers - How Bananas & the Like Ripen in the Best Possible Way

Ripening of the fruit can be slowed down or accelerated by adjusting the temperature and humidity as well as by providing a targeted supply of ethylene gas and regulating the CO2 concentration.

Perfecting IPM: Going beyond the crop walk and sticky cards

One company iUNU, has a system that uses AI to help with early pest detection. The system "learns" what healthy crops and plants look like, recognizes when anomalies occur, and then sends an alert when something is amiss.

Moving Horticulture and Indoor Cultivation to the Cloud

One of the most promising business cases for cloud and Internet of Things (IoT) services is environmental monitoring to help ensure a stable indoor growing environment for the localized cultivation of non-native crops such as fruits, nuts, vegetables and herbs.

Autogrow's API and Amazon's Alexa leads to world first talking AgTech system

"We think this is the best use-case of AI (Artificial Intelligence) today. Weve basically turned a vocal sound into a machine command and proven integration of different systems is possible," says CEO Darryn Keiller.
