The Yield: How to feed the world without 'wrecking the planet' Transform

But The Yield, an agricultural technology company based in Australia, uses sensors, data and artificial intelligence (AI) to help farmers make informed decisions related to weather, soil and plant conditions. "How do we feed the world without wrecking the planet?" says Ros Harvey, who founded The Yield in 2014. "We do that by taking the guesswork out of growing. This means growers can make better, faster decisions about how they produce the food we all eat." Using Microsoft AI, The Yield applies advanced analytics and predictive modeling to create a 7-day weather forecast for a farmer's specific microclimate.
