ROBOTIC REVOLUTION - EXPLORING THE FUTURE OF VERTICAL FARMING

RISE OF ROBOTICS IN AGRICULTURE 1. Introduction to Vertical Farming: Vertical farming is an innovative agricultural practice that involves growing crops in vertically stacked layers or towers, often in controlled indoor environments. It aims to maximize crop yield while minimizing land use, water consumption, and environmental impact. By utilizing technologies such as hydroponics, aeroponics, and artificial lighting, vertical farming allows for year-round cultivation of various crops. This method offers advantages like reduced pesticide use, improved resource efficiency, and increased local food production. Vertical farming holds immense potential to address food security and sustainability challenges in urban areas. 2. The Rise of Robotics in Agriculture: The agricultural industry is experiencing a transformative shift with the upward push of robotics. Robots are increasingly more being employed in diverse farming methods, revolutionizing traditional practices. From self-su...
