Technology in the Field -- Literally!
Galloway, Rory
Primary Science, n161 p21-23 Feb 2020
Technology in farming has advanced a great deal, but still has a long way to go. At the beginning of 2019, the then Environment Secretary, Michael Gove, stated that the United Kingdom is on the verge of a fourth agricultural revolution. This fourth revolution is being called the technological revolution, with developments involving artificial intelligence, big data analysis, drones, machine learning and robotics. This article outlines Rory Galloway's role as an agronomist and describes how everyday technology is used in his role.
