From screens to fields: how digitalisation is transforming agriculture is a concise and compelling look at how digital technologies are revolutionizing modern farming.

Starting with the first GPS-based field monitoring system in 1995, the publication charts the rapid rise of precision agriculture—now used on the vast majority of cropland across North America, Europe, and Australia. From AI-powered sprayers that cut herbicide use by 90% to soil sensors that halve irrigation needs, smart tools are now central to sustainable, efficient farming.

The publication also highlights emerging frontiers like generative AI, while addressing key challenges: data security, tech access, infrastructure, and training.

Essential reading for anyone shaping the future of agrifood, From screens to fields captures both the promise and the path forward in digitally driven agriculture. Read the full research paper here!
