Everything else follows from closing that gap.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/agricultural-robotics-autonomous-tractors/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/agricultural-robotics-autonomous-tractors/Driving a machine across a field was solved long ago. The hard part is knowing what is in front of it, and who answers for the mistake.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/agrivoltaics-with-biointegration/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/agrivoltaics-with-biointegration/A crop does not use all the sunlight that falls on it. Everything else follows from the fact that some of it can be taken almost for free.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/agroecology-regenerative-farming/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/agroecology-regenerative-farming/The term is defined by practices and sold on outcomes. Almost every argument about it grows in that gap.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/bio-indoor-gardening-kits/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/bio-indoor-gardening-kits/Light is rarely what limits a countertop hydroponic unit. Root-zone volume, solution drift and warm water are.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/bio-robotic-pollination/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/bio-robotic-pollination/What stands between a machine and a bee is not the operation but its unit cost: a hectare holds millions of flowers.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/carbon-farming/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/carbon-farming/Soil gains carbon until it reaches a new equilibrium, and gives it back in a single tillage pass. Neither property can be engineered away.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/controlled-environment-agriculture/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/controlled-environment-agriculture/Replace the sun with a lamp and the photon becomes a purchased input. After that it is arithmetic.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/drones-satellite-agro-analytics/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/drones-satellite-agro-analytics/A vegetation index is a physical measurement of reflectance, not a measurement of yield. Calibration is what stands between them.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/food-security-vertical-farms/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/food-security-vertical-farms/An indoor farm does not address calories and does not claim to. It addresses fresh produce in a dependent supply chain.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/soil-carbon-mrv/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/soil-carbon-mrv/The change to be measured is smaller than the spatial variability of the background. The whole field is organised around that one fact.https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/urban-vertical-farming/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/docs/agri-food/agri-tech-precision/urban-vertical-farming/Proximity saves less than it appears to and rent costs more. The real arguments are shelf life and somebody else’s heat.
