Recently, there are game-changer emerging developments in the agricultural and forestry landscape. These smart approaches play a vital role growing crops with higher production and more healthy forest tree generations. This results in conservation of renewable resources and biodiversity. AgirOnix is offering innovative solutions to some of the most pressing challenges in agriculture & forestry. For a sustainable cropping system with higher yields and renewable forest resources, it is important to minimize environmental impacts, using precise measures and optimum utilization of available resources. Precision agriculture & forestry is not just transforming how we farm, rather it's creating a wealth of business opportunities for entrepreneurs, tech innovators, and investors.
The agricultural & forestry sectors have always been at the forefront of innovation, but recently, it has seen a modern transformation with the advent of precision agriculture & forestry. This cutting-edge approach leverages technology to optimize crop yields, reduce biotic (pests & diseases) and abiotic (environmental) impacts, and improve overall farm management. Moreover, precision forestry powered by digital technologies has led to highly productive and healthy forests. This has been operated by a range of high tech equipment including drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), remote sensors, laser scanning (lidar), Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Internet of Things (IoT), automated machinery, cameras and soil sensors. However, farmers can make more informed decisions, tailor their practices to specific areas of their fields, and improve the efficiency and sustainability of their field operations.
Precision agriculture or precision farming constitute utilization of the technology and data-driven techniques to monitor and manage crops, forest and livestock more efficiently. The very core principle is to observe, measure, and respond to variability in fields to optimize returns on inputs and preserve resources at the same time. Globally, the precision agri & forestry market is growing rapidly based on the needs for sustainable farming practices to meet rising demand for food and to preserve renewable resources and biodiversity in the forest. According to industry reports, the market is expected to reach $12.9 billion by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7% from 2020 to 2027.
Agrionix developed a computer vision, thermal imaging and other high tech based integrated solution to revolutionize agriculture and forestry by enhancing specifically crop quality and production and forest management based on monitoring of biotic (pests, diseases) and abiotic (temperature, moisture and other field indicators) factors. By enabling precise, data-driven decisions, these tools will support sustainable farming practices to enhance food security, preserve renewable forest resources and make these advanced tech accessible for everyone.
