Agricultural technology is now part of clean technology. As global demand for food continues to rise, farmers need to maximize agricultural productivity while ensuring environmental sustainability. This article examines advances in agritech within the context of cleantech.
Agriculture must feed 10 billion people by 2050 while cutting emissions and waste. Integrated photonics offers a solution with advanced sensors for efficient, high-yield farming.
An autonomous robot – a base on wheels fitted with computer vision technology that snaps images of grapevines in near real-time – rolls down a long row of plants in a vineyard at Cornell AgriTech in Geneva, New York.
With the expected population of the UK to be 73.7 million by 2036 and increased pressure to reach net zero by 2050, how does the Agriculture industry fair when challenged with growing populations, climate change, sustainability goals and resource inefficiencies?
In this episode, we discuss how Dyson - the company best known for their vacuum cleaners - has created an automated and sustainable farm to harvest the best possible strawberries with the least amount of environmental impact.
The German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence will be presenting new technologies for agriculture in three exhibit halls at the International Grüne Woche, which will take place in Berlin from 19 to 28 January 2024.
Working in a greenhouse is both strenuous and time-consuming. The picking robot from ETH spin-off Floating Robotics takes on particularly repetitive tasks, thereby alleviating the strain on human pickers. It is currently undergoing testing at Beerstecher AG in Hinwil.
In this episode, we talk about how researchers from the Technical University of Denmark are tackling the issue of monoculture farming by utilizing robotics and next-gen image analysis.
In response to the OKDo Engineering Challenge provocation, a team from the University of Maribor submitted a proposal to use the ROCK 5B in their raspberry detection and localization robot.
In Denmark, agriculture makes up almost 2/3 of our land and oftentimes one crop is grown in huge areas. That's hurting the biodiversity, but agricultural robots can help do away with monoculture, and a new DTU project will pave the way for that future.
Clean by ozone. It’s a term many may not be familiar with but for Arrow Lake they are on a mission to develop the world’s most efficient ozone technology and energy-efficient solutions with help from Protolabs.
