As more farms turn to artificial intelligence, one urban farmer is using it to get a better idea of yields.
“We started to notice that the data for deficiencies started to pop up before, let’s say a horticulturist was on site, able to, like, look at one of the leaves and say, hey, something’s going on. So we felt like this was being really proactive and getting consistent to where we understood every time they harvest the level of lettuce, how many pounds that was going to be,” said Clayton Mooney.
However, Mooney says they eventually retired that system because they could not pinpoint key data sets. He says they now use artificial intelligence more on the consumer side for flavor profiles and menu styling.
