Now that land and water are becoming harder to secure for growing large amounts of crops, smart agriculture solutions are being developed to increase efficiency for people and ease on the planet.
With its urban farming system, CoolFarm is demonstrating how technology like artificial intelligence can be put to good use for automating the process of delivering water and nutrients to produce and plants. By using machine learning, CoolFarm is also able to pick up on how a plant grows best, so that a farmer or a gardener can learn along with the machine. When the system detects something that could be going awry, the smart cloud-connected system even has the ability to provide advance notice.
Ultimately, CoolFarm aims to make it possible to produce local, organic and healthy plants anywhere.
