Potato cultivation undergoes a technological transformation with the integration of AI and robotics into traditional farming practices. Standard methods face limitations in meeting nutrient requirements during later growth stages, necessitating more precise and efficient nutrient delivery. Belgium-based start-up Croptic uses drone-based detection for site-specific treatment of problematic weeds, reducing herbicide usage. AI and drones enhance traditional spraying methods, providing application maps for targeted spraying. Researchers globally, including Dalhousie University in Canada, are incorporating portable spectrophotometers and machine learning algorithms for real-time analysis of plant nutritional needs, enabling efficient and timely fertilizer application. EU explores high-tech agriculture with German robots, but some farmers resist adoption due to traditional practices, highlighting need for cost-effective alternatives in "agriculture 4.0."
