Data revolution in the agricultural sector
The digital revolution is now upon us. A number of digital technologies and trends with the potential of entirely transforming the way we work are now becoming available to the agricultural sector. These include big data, internet of things, robotics, etc. Applying these technologies to agriculture could provide solutions for many of the challenges the sector is facing. However, in one way or another, these technologies all rely on data sharing among different actors within and outside of the sector (input providers, farmers, advisers, processors, marketers, public bodies, etc.). To generate value out of data, it often has to be aggregated, and data from different sources has to be combined. Data sharing is difficult to achieve and it needs to happen in an environment of trust.
