HOW IT BENEFITS THE APPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY IN AGRICULTURE

in #farms6 years ago


SOURCE

For decades, agriculture has been associated with the production of essential food crops.
Currently, agriculture includes forestry, dairy products, fruit cultivation, poultry, and beekeeping among others. Thus, agriculture is defined as the production, transformation, promotion and distribution of agricultural products.
Agriculture is the backbone of the economic system, boosting the economy of developing countries. In addition to providing food and raw materials, it offers employment opportunities to a very large percentage of the population. In some countries, 42% of the population depends directly on agriculture, fishing or forestry for their subsistence.
The history of humanity would not have been understood, neither economically nor culturally, without this set of techniques and knowledge to cultivate the land that are included in agriculture. It is the way to exploit natural resources for the production of vegetables, pastures and fodder or fibers used in the textile industry, among other things. Applying technology to agriculture makes it possible to combine production with the environment, achieving better results in terms of productivity, traceability and sustainability.

As humanity evolves, everything is changing rapidly. The same goes for the structure of agriculture. Nowadays the farms work very differently from a few decades ago, mainly thanks to new technologies and tools for agriculture. These advanced devices and precision robotics systems allow companies to be more profitable, efficient, safe and respectful of the environment.
Thanks to technological advances, farmers no longer have to apply water, fertilizers and pesticides uniformly across entire fields. Instead, they can use the minimum quantities required and go to very specific areas, or even treat individual plants differently. The modernization of agricultural techniques is basic and both developing and more developed countries should bet in this way to resolve adverse situations, especially shortages

THE BENEFITS INCLUDE:


• Higher crop productivity
• Decrease in chemical discharges in rivers and groundwater
• Increased worker safety
• Decrease in the use of water, fertilizers and pesticides, which in turn reduces food prices.
In addition, robotic technologies allow monitoring and more reliable management of natural resources, such as air and water quality. It also gives producers greater control over the production, processing, distribution and storage of plants and animals, resulting in:
• Greater efficiency and lower prices
• Safer growing conditions and safer food
• Reduction of the environmental and ecological impact
At the time, it was one of the most important discoveries of humanity, which allowed the people to become sedentary after a previous phase of food storage, and intermittent returns to nomadism. Thousands of years later, the sector poses challenges that must be assumed.
The sights are set on technological innovation, on how new techniques are applied to the farmer's work to ensure their sustenance, so that the product is affordable and good for the consumer and not to compromise future generations.
Technology would have a fundamental role here to improve production and food security. To improve efficiency in intensive agriculture in arid areas, irrigation systems controlled by computers and remote monitoring programs have been developed in real time. Each parameter is monitored and temperature, humidity, pH of the water cte

APPS FOR THE FIELD


Mobile applications help the farmer also use a device that he always carries with him, such as the telephone. It is the mobile intelligence applied to the crop, and who knows about that is Brioagro Technologies.

in real time about the main variables in which he can intervene to improve his crops, increasing the yield and maximizing, therefore, the options of taking profits from production. It is an application that helps make decisions.

Hi! Your article is very interesting! As for the benefits farmers get from creating an app, there are several. First of all, working with data is simplified. The app automates the processing and storage of data on plants, varieties, current growing methods, etc.
Efficiency increases. In the agribusiness sector, equipment combined with software greatly boosts performance thanks to features such as the incorporation of smart irrigation systems, intelligent communications, GPS trackers, and advanced monitoring systems. In addition to increased efficiency, technology also saves time.
And it is also a great way to make various payments and monitor the health of your plants.
