Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly growing in value and is expected to reach nearly $2 trillion by 2030. AI is being used to optimize irrigation systems, monitor crops and soil, detect disease and pests, monitor livestock health, provide intelligent pesticide application, and predictive analytics for yield mapping in the agricultural industry. There are a number of startups taking advantage of this opportunity, such as Intelia, ecoRobotix, Sentera, Regrow, and Verdant Robotics. These startups are using AI to revolutionize crop intelligence, provide smart spraying for ultra-localised treatments, and deliver high-resolution imagery for agronomic insights.
