Introduction
This event is organised by the Artificial Intelligence for Decarbonisation’s Virtual Centre of Excellence (ADViCE), aimed at the development of innovative artificial intelligence technologies for decarbonisation applications to support the transition to Net Zero.
As a collaboration between Digital Catapult, Energy Systems Catapult and The Alan Turing Institute. As part of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero’s Net Zero Innovation Portfolio, ADViCE will be delivering a series of webinars focused on key challenges identified in the ADViCE: AI for Decarbonisation Challenges report, which highlights key areas that could benefit from AI adoption in the effort to decarbonise.
About the event
Join us for an insightful webinar on "AI Solutions for Optimal Soil Management," where we delve into how artificial intelligence is transforming agricultural practices. As soil health becomes increasingly critical for sustainable farming, this webinar will explore how AI-driven technologies can revolutionise soil management strategies, improving productivity while ensuring environmental sustainability.
Our expert panel will discuss the latest advancements in AI applications, including precision farming, soil monitoring and predictive analytics. We will learn how AI tools can analyse soil data in real-time, offering actionable insights that enable farmers to make informed decisions about irrigation, fertilisation and crop rotation. This webinar will also cover how machine learning models can predict soil degradation and suggest preventive measures, helping to maintain soil fertility and boost crop yields.
The webinar will conclude with a live Q&A session, allowing participants to engage with the speakers and discuss the potential of AI in revolutionising soil management.
