If you go down to the farm today, you’ll probably find it packed with sensors, drones and remote management systems managed by iPhones, iPads and other mobile devices.
A new agriculture
In fact, we’re only one or two Siri Shortcuts away from voice-controlled farms equipped with remotely controlled irrigation, livestock and crop management solutions and blockchain-based crop lifecycle analysis tools.
Most of this technology exists, though cost constrains deployment.
Leading the digital transformation of agriculture are apps, such as: Agrellus, an online marketplace for agriculture, xarvio Scouting App for better crop management, FieldNET Mobile to control water pivots remotely, Yara ImageIT which turns your iPhone into a crop nutrient testing system, AgSense, GrainTruckPlus. There are many more apps for agriculture available at the App Store – including Tudder, the “Tinder for farm animals”.
