Leveraging Technology to Feed the World: Location Data in Agriculture
By
The Fulcrum Team
May 15, 2019
From 1900 to 2000, Earth’s population grew from 1.65 billion to 6.27 billion people, and is expected to top 9 billion before 2050.
That’s a lot of mouths to feed.
To keep up with demand — as well as a changing climate (March 2019 was the second hottest month on record globally) — food growers, processors, distributors, and merchants must remain agile and adopt new technologies as they become available.
The Spatial Networks team hosted a webinar recently to explore how some of the most successful companies in the agriculture industry are using location data to ensure food safety and crop health, predict yields, forecast market demand and more.
