?Smart Farming can support more productive and sustainable farming via an accurate and resource-efficient approach, says Dr Jan Regtmeier, Director Product Management at HARTING IT Software Development. Regtmeier demonstrates application of the HARTING MICA
Two application scenarios show how MICAand sent to the Cloud for further evaluation. In the second application scenario, MICA records data during the critical mashing process. The data is then used for process optimisation with data analytics. ?Data-supported farming allows for new approaches, ensuring sustainable food production now and in the future,? explains Dries Guth, Principal Innovation Manager and Head of the IoT Innovation Lab at itelligence. Data collated via sensors, from the soil and farming machinery and satellite imagery and fed into intelligent systems supports not only yield optimisation, but also the resource-saving application of water and crop protection products. ?It is also about exploring new forms of food production, as we are now seeing with the successes in Urban Farming and Vertical Farming for example,? adds Dries Guth.
?The potential for Smart Farming is huge,? says Regtmeier with conviction. ?The farming industry has only just begun to make use of digitalisation.?
