Digital Agritechnology: Robotics And Systems For Agriculture And Livestock Production

Digital Agritechnology describes how systems acquire and use data in livestock production and agricultural systems, and how researchers can extract and aggregate the efficiencies generated. The origins of digital agritechnology are decades old, and this has already contributed to improvements without the need for controversial chemical and genetic tools. Robotic milkers have been available for over 20 years, and GPS-based tractor controls have existed for nearly 30 years. However, only a few capabilities of these sensing and control systems are used. This book addresses the need to educate agriculturists of the full usage scale of these arable and livestock systems.
