AgTech: A Future Without Hunger?

Three innovative technologies are poised to revolutionize farming, potentially ending world hunger.

Scientists now use CRISPR to enhance crops. These new breeding techniques (NBTs) make crops more resilient. For instance, researchers have developed drought-resistant tomatoes and fungi-resistant rice.

DJI's Agras drones provide real-time crop data and assist in precise spraying of chemicals. John Deere's self-driving tractors ensure optimal planting. Connecting these machines to SpaceX's Starlink boosts their efficiency, even in rural areas.

Biological farming products are replacing synthetic chemicals. These products include natural ingredients like plant extracts and microbes. They help crops grow and protect them from pests.
