Nuts have proven to be a cost-effective crop in recent times, with the price of almonds climbing to $3 a pound and the utilization of mechanized harvesting processes that cut down on labor costs. Despite this, the value of almonds have still fallen by $0.5 billion and the value of walnuts have decreased by almost $1 billion.
Growers that are producing olives have benefited from the highly drought-tolerant product that can survive on light rainfall alone. Although water scarcity is not a major issue, growers that are producing olives are facing low prices and labor costs that are forcing generations of olive-growers to choose a more lucrative crop.
Ag 4.0 will delve into understanding the modern farmer and their adoption of tech to mitigate these issues. It will address the challenges within the industry, such as efficiency, sustainability & profitability, and market volatility, to help enable more concise and productive farming methods whilst reducing costs.
