Webinar: Leveraging AI for Precision Agriculture

As one of the primary drivers of climate change, agriculture as we know it must keep evolving to reduce resource waste and environmental degradation while increasing yield, thus allowing us to use less land to produce more food. This is why precision agriculture matters to everyone. The potential of emerging technologies to revolutionize agriculture across Africa was the crux of the discussion during a webinar hosted on 20th March 2024 by WeRobotics and Ghana-based AI company Aya Data. 

The key speakers – Freddie Monk, Simone Fugar, and Anthony Ipfy of Aya Data – shared the strategies and technologies the company employs to tackle pressing challenges facing African agriculture and address the SDGs of zero hunger, climate action, and sustainable economic growth. By harnessing the power of drone and satellite data along with artificial intelligence, the company is pioneering solutions that save costs and time, reduce waste, and improve crop yield – all of which optimize agricultural practices to conserve the environment and support the implementation of government policies and regulations aimed at mitigating the impacts of climate change.
