Get Behind The Buzz: Real World Examples Of Smart Agriculture
Smart agriculture undoubtedly has disruptive potential. But the gap between the technically possible and the economically reasonable seems especially wide in this application of digital technology. This talk focuses on what is currently really being adopted around the world. As a member of the global innovation network TTI/Vanguard, Christoph Kögler presents three examples from different countries:
Pigsty IoT (USA): How the IoT helps researchers to optimize pig food
Blockchain Farming (Kenia): How the Blockchain helps small pyrethrum farmers
Drone Crop Monitoring (India): How advanced computer vision predicts crop diseases
He will show that there is always a specific and important market need that justifies the complexity and cost of applying leading edge information technology to agriculture.
