Policy Horizons Canada worked with futuristic display Michell
Zappa forecast data to produce a report called Metascan 3: Emerging technology in agriculture sector.
And graphics that accompany it. Reproduce the
summary of emerging agricultural technologies.
Sensors, Power, Automation
and Engineering: A list of technologies related to agricultural and natural
manufacturing in four key areas of change of acceleration are presented.
The sensors help to
agriculture, allowing real-time tracking and diagnosis of crops, livestock and
farm equipment states.
Food can benefit directly
from genetic manipulation and potentially the production of meat directly in a
laboratory.
Recent agriculture technology & Automation will help agriculture through large-scale robotics and micro-robots to check and maintain
crop plant level.
Involves technologies that
extend the reach of agriculture to new media, new places and new areas of the
economy. Of particular interest will be synthetic biology, which is used to
program efficiently unicellular life to make fuels, accessible products from
organic chemistry and smart devices.
We have included
predictions based on consultation with experts when each technology is
scientifically feasible (the kind of thing that Google, governments and
universities develop), mainstream (when VC and startups widely invested in it),
and financially viable (when the technology is generally available on Kick
starter).
Sensors
Air and ground sensors:
fundamental to automated farm additions, these sensors allow real understanding
of agriculture, forestry or body of water conditions present time.
Scientifically feasible in
2013; current principal and financially viable in 2015.
Telematics team: Allows
mechanical devices such as tractors to warn the mechanic that is likely to
happen soon fail. The intra-tractor communication can be used as a rudimentary
platform "farm swarm".
Scientifically feasible in
2013; mainstream in 2016; and financially viable in 2017.
Biometrics Livestock:
necklaces with GPS, RFID and biometrics can automatically identify and transmit
vital information about livestock in real time.
Scientifically feasible in
2017; current principal and financially viable in 2020.
Sensors crops: instead of
fertilization prescription before application field, crop sensors high
resolution inform application equipment necessary correct amounts. Drones or
optical sensors are able to identify the health of the crop across the field
(for example using infrared light).
Scientifically feasible in
2015; mainstream in 2018; and financially viable in 2019.
Sensors health
infrastructure: Can be used for monitoring vibration and physical conditions in
buildings, bridges, factories, farms and other infrastructure. Along with a
smart grid, these sensors could feed information back to crucial equipment
maintenance or robots.
Precision agriculture:
management of agriculture based on observation (and respond to) the intra-field
variations. With satellite imagery and advanced sensors, farmers can optimize
the profitability of inputs, preserving resources increasingly large scales.
Further understanding of the variability of crops, geo-meteorological data and
precise sensors should enable better decision making and automated techniques
complementary planting.
Scientifically feasible in
2019; mainstream in 2023; and financially viable in 2024.
Swarms of robotic farm:
The hypothetical combination of tens or hundreds of agricultural robots with
thousands of microscopic sensors, which together would monitor, predict,
cultivating crops and extract land almost without human intervention.
Small-scale implementations are already on the horizon.
Scientifically feasible in
2023; current principal and financially viable in 2026.
Engineering
Closed Ecological Systems:
Ecosystems that are not based on the exchange of matter outside the system.
These ecosystems closed theoretically transform waste products into oxygen,
food and water to support life forms inhabiting the system. These systems
already exist in small scales, but existing technological limitations prevent
them from climbing.
Scientifically feasible in
2015; mainstream in 2020; and financially viable in 2021.
Synthetic Biology:
Synthetic biology is about the biology of programming using standardized parts
as one computer programs using standardized libraries today. Includes
comprehensive redefinition and expansion of biotechnology, with the ultimate
goal of being able to design, build and repair biological systems engineering
process information, handling chemicals, construction materials and structures,
produce energy, provide food, and maintain and improve human health and our
environment.
Scientifically feasible in
2013; mainstream in 2023; and financially viable in 2024.
Vertical farms.
Vertical farming: A
natural extension of urban agriculture, vertical farms would cultivate the
plant and animal life within skyscrapers dedicated or mixed-use urban
environments. Using similar techniques glass houses, vertical farms could
increase natural light using energy efficient lighting. The advantages are
numerous, including crop production throughout the year, weather protection,
support urban food autonomy and reduced transportation costs.
The DAC is organized into 27 divisions and has five affiliated
offices and twenty subordinate offices, spread throughout the country for
coordination with agencies statewide and implementation of projects of central
sectors in their respective fields.
In addition, two companies
of the Public Sector nine autonomous bodies, ten cooperative organizations national
Level and authority are functioning under the administrative control of the
Department. Some of the agricultural job links are given below.
