Here we will discuss 7 Trends In Agriculture To Watch In 2022. Globally, agriculture is the backbone of many economies. Therefore empowering agriculture as a vehicle for inclusive growth while increasing rural income and stabilizing food security. But this can only be achieved when modern technology is used efficiently.

Here is #Cropway‘s views on what the future holds for agriculture sector:

1. Aerial Imaging Is being used more frequently

COVID-19 makes it necessary for farmers and agri industry to migrate from in-person meetings to digital meetings in many circumstances. For example, in Cropway through our farm-to-fork platform, we enable farmers to sell their produce directly to consumers, using technology as a bridge to provide them with transparent access to pricing information, and enabling them to gain enhanced traceability.

5. Accurate Yield Estimates
