AI-based technologies fights weeds
Canadian, Swiss companies employ artificial intelligence tools to target weeds with electricity, minimal chemical use
Glacier FarmMedia – Herbicides have long made weed control easier, but that’s changing as more and more weeds develop resistance and new invasive species take hold in our soils.

Artificial intelligence challenges the status quo
Beef industry told new technology is ushering in a new era that will require farm managers to be strategically disruptive
You may run a great beef operation, but how do you make yourself remarkable? That’s likely not a question most ranchers ask themselves, but according to a technology expert who spoke to the recent Alberta Beef Industry Conference, it is the type of question and thinking that must be asked today in light of explosive […] Read more
Smart tech can identify sick pigs
A sick pig doesn’t want anyone to know it’s not well, and that can stop even the best barn staff from intervening before the animal’s condition worsens. With smart technology and artificial intelligence, it should be possible to flag illness long before humans can identify it, says Tami Brown-Brandl of the University of Nebraska, speaking […] Read more
