Pretty neat — cows that burp less methane. Methane is a lot worse of a greenhouse gas than CO2, so this is huge https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/climate-friendly-cows-bred-belch-less-methane-2023-08-08/ #ClimateChange #agtech #agriculture

Running a HS-age #STEM summer program at work, and focused our efforts on showcasing #precisionagriculture in a small form factor, with embedded #iot for enhanced usability and accessibility. Basically, a #smart #garden bed!
Came across this article today, and couldn't be more saddened at the reality of the state I call home. Hoping my students take this project to heart, and walk away with something more than a resume builder

I've been reading EO since you recommended it a few months ago, and it feels good to read someone that actually understands farmers and sees through the hype.
And the memes are great.

A look back at ISF 🌱
We were thrilled to meet the global seed industry at ISF World Seed Congress in Cape Town in early June. Here’s what we learned 👉 https://tinyurl.com/3pt8mpzm #WorldSeed2023 #agtech #plantbreeding #predictivebreeding

This week's post is the first part of something I have been thinking about for a while due to similarities between the agriculture and pharmaceutical industries in how we apply machine learning, but of course, a bit divergent from the typical similarities. #agtech #transcriptomics #machinelearning #oncology #datascience

Throwback to a research field visit almost 2 years ago.
Looking forward to everything being planted and growing tall again! 🚜 🌽 🌽 🌽

🌷Y’all know I love to write about adorable robots that actually benefit all parties involved. (They’re still rare so that’s why I don’t often.) This #agTech company Tevel worked with Spectro Cloud to develop #k8s on the #edge for AI-backed autonomous fruit pickers, pollinators and pruners who keep going despite unstable connectivity, low to no supervision, and risk of theft.

Still nascent, an emerging fleet of whisper-silent, emissions-free tractors aims to unhitch growers from the burdens of conventional farming.
By harnessing electric vehicle and robotics tech, driver-optional e-tractors are a growing part of all aspects of field work—from seeding and weeding to harvest and equipment repair—and may clear the path to better labor, field, and sustainability practices. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/could-electric-tractors-revolutionize-farming-180982012/ #agtech #farming #agriculture
Last was an engaging panel at the #AfricaTechSummit on #AgTech in #Africa with Hafsah Jumare, Rose Goslinga, Seema Gohil, Dave Okech Okech, and Hetal Patel. This is such an important area for the continent, and the unique experiences and approaches discussed here makes me very excited to see how the sector continues to grow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCBzx1fVfOc (10/10) #startups

Happy National Ag Day everyone!
Learn all about how we grow our food and protect our resources 🧑🌾
Here are a couple of the cool things I’ve gotten to see and do in the last year or so while out on research trips.
