Big Data: Driving Transformation in Agriculture
AgriAbout Online Magazine (May 2024)
When Dr Ida Wilson and Dr Onai Mtengwa invited me to collaborate on an article for the May edition of the AgriAbout magazine, I jumped at the opportunity and swiftly made it a weekend priority. It was such a pleasure to work with two fantastically passionate researchers doing such great work, with an amazing product I have used myself, with some mind-blowing results.
Not focused on any single crop type, but more an overview of Big Data technologies, our article is a quick-view of the tools, benefits, synergies, challenges, and opportunities for Big Data use in Agriculture.
We touch on working with data, weather stations, in-field telemetry, remote sensing, yield predictions, sustainability, and more. Well rounded, but still a quick read at 4 or so pages. A good tribute to 4IR and agriculture.
