Agricultural technology aims to make fieldwork more efficient and convenient. Every year, many innovations, sometimes breakthrough technologies,
appear in agriculture. With the modernization and expansion of the agricultural industry, it is increasingly important for agricultural consultants, food manufacturers and industrial managers to stay abreast of the latest technological standards. Numerous technologies are contributing to increased efficiency within the agricultural ecosystem.
In this dynamic landscape, precision agriculture is positioned to thrive. This growth is fuelled by the widespread adoption of drones and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for real-time crop monitoring. Simultaneously, IoT devices and sensors will provide invaluable data on soil health and environmental conditions. AI and ML will play pivotal roles, offering predictive analytics for optimised crop management and image recognition for early detection of potential issues. AI and ML will further strengthen in application for precision farming. These technologies will help analyse vast datasets from drones, providing insights into optimal planting times, soil health, and customised crop management practices. Robotic solutions for planting, harvesting, and crop maintenance will remain in trend and only get better with time. Automated machinery with precision control will ensure accurate planting depths, selective harvesting, and targeted crop treatments. The government of India has initiated the 4th wave of revolution in the agricultural sector to introduce technological advancement in the sector to improve yields. The government also launched the Digital Agriculture Mission for 202125 to include artificial intelligence, remote sensing, drones, robots, and other technology with grants for drone procurement.
