Smart Farms
Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-80146-382-9 (ISBN)
The agricultural sector remains under increasing pressure to reduce its environmental impact and consequent contribution to climate change, whilst also producing enough food to feed a rapidly growing population. With the variety and volume of data, coupled with the advanced methods for data processing, a new era of digital agriculture is emerging as a possible solution to this monumental challenge.
Smart farms: improving data-driven decision making in agriculture provides a comprehensive review of the recent advances in gathering and analysing data as a means of improving farm sustainability, productivity and profitability. The book discusses the evolution of farm information management systems, highlighting current trends and challenges, as well as methods of data acquisition and analysis, including the use of artificial intelligence.
Professor Claus Grøn Sørensen is Head of Research Unit in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Aarhus University. He is internationally renowned for his research in production and operations management, decision analysis, information modelling, system analysis, and simulation and modelling of technology applications in agriculture. He has participated in a number of EU research projects, such as Internet of Food and Farms 2020, FutureFarm and SmartAgriFood. He is the winner of the Recognition Award for service as President of EurAgEng (European Society of Agricultural Engineers), Merit Award for service as President of CIGR Section V and promoting cooperation with international organisations, and Outstanding Paper Award from the editors of Biosystems Engineering. He is currently serving in the executive committee of EurAgEng and as incoming President of CIGR. He also serves as a full member of the Club of Bologna and he is an iABBE fellow of the International Academy of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering.
