The Role of Agricultural Drones in Modern Irish Farming
This article explores the various applications of these drones, the challenges of using them within current EU regulations, and how they're revolutionizing agricultural practices across the country.
Guarding Your Grove: Understanding Almond Pest Monitoring
One of the most persistent threats to almond production is the presence of insect pests. These unwelcome visitors can cause significant damage, reducing yields and impacting the quality of the almonds.
Understanding the Significance of Agricultural Insect Management
The battle against these crop-destroying pests is relentless and proper management requires the knowledge of entomologists, pest control advisors (PCAs), and crop advisors to provide accurate and actionable data.
How to Fight Back Against the Concerns Caused by Fungicides
Protein-based biocontrol solutions, the next wave of biofungicides, offer a new way to ensure the safety of our food supply expected to be produced at a cost-effective price point comparable to chemical-based counterparts.
Know Your Pests to Grow Your Best | How Automated Pest Monitoring is Transforming Farming
A beacon of innovation in a field ripe for technological infusion, this modern solution doesn't just aim to replace the old guard of pest detection; it seeks to revolutionize it, turning what was once a reactive measure into a proactive, real-time strategy.
The Value of Insect Monitoring in Modern Agriculture
In a world where agriculture must meet the demands of an increasing population while respecting the limits of the planet, the value of insect monitoring cannot be underestimated. It is a key piece of the puzzle
How IoT Enhances Pest Control on Large-Scale Farms

As climate change ramps up and large-scale growers face increasing challenges to maintain adequate food supplies, IoT will continue to be at the forefront of insect mitigation efforts. Here's how IoT is improving pest control on commercial farms.
How to Fight Back Against the Food Chain Climate Catastrophe
While there are a myriad of reasons why farming and delivering food is more challenging than ever before, treatment-resistant insects, disease (fungus) and weeds are primary contributors to the problem.
What are the Realistic Expectations for Biopesticides to Replace Synthetics in Commercial Agriculture?
As the spotlight shines on biopesticide development more than ever before, it is important to consider the fact that incorporating these - ideally - ecofriendly methods of pest control encompass more than simply embracing green alternatives.
Building the Business Case for Conservation Agriculture and Redefining Our Approach to Feeding the World
The large commercial farming operations are clearly of the opinion that conservation agriculture, which targets a considerable reduction in inorganic fertilizer and pesticides, is a fringe food option.
AI Enhancing Nanotechnology in Agriculture: A Leap Forward in Sustainable Farming

It's just another intersection of integrated pest management (IPM) and AgTech. As technology expands to include gene editing, AI and laser beams, farmers have a new suite of pest management tools in their arsenal.
Drones Revolutionizing Weed Management and Crop Care
Drones can broadcast chemicals over entire fields or apply them to specific plants with remarkable accuracy. Fixed-wing planes take a clumsy approach - as the product leaves the tank in a hazy cloud, much of it blows beyond the pasture's edge.
Employing VOCs as an Eco-Friendly Solution for Crop Production and Protection in 2023
