What does it take to be ahead in the game of #AI-based #agricultural research? What strategies are required to scale it? Can we make the end-product appealing to growers/farmers? Or are we just using AI because everyone else is using it? I hope this book answers it all!! #AgTech

Had an amazing two-day event at the Grand Farm, ND. Interacted with the industry and higher-education professionals. We had some folks from the UGA, including Dr. Place Nick Place. The Grand Farm is collaborating with the UofGA to advance precision ag. research.

I'm deeply saddened by the passing of Sheldon Tuscherer. He was a research specialist at North Dakota State University's NDSU Ag & Biosys Eng, and would always stop by to say a hello and even ask how I was doing? I still remember our very first conversation back in 2019. Praying for his departed soul. Ecc. 3:20.

I cannot agree more! We need some levels of foundational research ("first-principal thinking") rather than just the metrics!!!

Introduced John Deere USA's semi-autonomous Gator to undergrad students at North Dakota State University. Most of the students already had an hands-on-experience driving it manually. However, they enjoyed and learnt so much about the semi-autonomous feature. Two problems we faced while driving were: (a)

Our new paper titled, "A case study on canola (Brassica napus L.) potential yield prediction using remote sensing imagery and advanced data analytics," is out now. Read it here: doi.org/10.1016/j.atec…. We have performed a potential yield prediction on canola crop through a

Last day of this year's data collection. Signing-off with some positive results on crop diagnostics for robotic applications at ezaginnovations & FLORIDA's #GCREC. Stay tuned for some cutting-edge applications of site-specific ag. next year! Wish you'll a very happy #Christmas2024.

This morning looked busier with planting #watermelons, #squashes, & harvesting #strawberries at the FLORIDA's Gulf Coast. Most of all, planting three watermelon varieties by Syngenta US, was the best part! Take a look at the pics 🧑‍💻 Will be collecting large-scale dataset on diseases.

We are making advancements as part of preliminary ground #robot prototyping in collaborations with ezaginnovations at the #GCREC, FLORIDA. Adding a sneak peek into our evolving system where we will be integrating multiple vision streams for #target spraying application. #digitalag

We got one of these #farmng at the UF Gulf Coast REC UF Engineering FLORIDA. Each time I see this kind of #robot, I can’t help but think about how it could be applied to solve "on-farm" challenges 😍. Solely the reason why I #love the intersection of #engineering with #agriculture.

I was an #avidreader during my MS & early PhD days, but somehow along the way, I lost touch due to inconsistencies in balancing research and chores. Now, I’m reigniting my love for books in an era of ADHD and insta scrolling. Follow my reading journey on Goodreads #readingworld.

Happy #AgTech FriYay! Setting up 120ft boom sprayer system for site-specific #disease management. This will hopefully cater for real-time decision-making in managing diseases in specialty crops, e.g. watermelons! 🍉 #PrecisionAg #spraying #ArtificialInteligence #DataScience

It's 2025 and we are still getting these junk mails to wallpaper our houses 😄🌲. So much paper, ink, and fuel-all for something that goes straight to #recycling (or worse, the trash!) - Go Digital!!! #Sustainability #recycling2025 #EcoFriendly
