Artificial intelligence perfectly able to grow crops - FutureFarming
People without any knowledge can use artificial intelligence (AI) to produce more profitable cucumbers than the most experienced growers. This was shown in an experiment that Wageningen University & Research (WUR) in the Netherlands conducted last year in a greenhouse complex at their experimental farm in Bleiswijk. WUR researcher Isabella Righini cited this research at the Global Future Farming Summit, which was held in Wageningen recently. Experts there focused on precision agriculture and the robotisation of food production. Righini: "Producing food requires a lot from the grower. He must deal with the supply of raw materials, such as minerals for his crops. He must take care of the crops. And he has to market his crops. That is a complex operation. In the Autonomous Greenhouse project we are testing to what extent artificial intelligence can help growers grow crops."
