IOT AND ROBOTICS
Agriculture 4.0 is the application of Industry 4.0 principles to the agrifood sector, involving the trend towards automation and interconnectedness of agricultural activities, as well as the broader supply chain involved in the production, promotion, distribution, and disposal of food products.
The agricultural sector, thanks to its strong territorial diversification and wide variety and quality of productions, continues to represent an important part of our country’s economy. The FAO, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, has estimated that, in order to meet everyone’s demands, agriculture in 2050 will need to produce 60% more without depleting natural resources or further impacting the environment.
The solution is smart agriculture, which, thanks to its numerous applications, will allow for a drastic reduction (up to 85%) in pesticide use, decrease waste and resource consumption, and increase the quality and quantity of crops.
IoT sensors are an example of applying Industry 4.0 technologies to the agricultural sector and are a fundamental tool for optimizing and making current productions more efficient. An IoT device can measure important parameters indicating plant health and external conditions, sending the data to intelligent systems for processing through image processing algorithms and machine learning.
