Summary: | Business models utilizing artificial
intelligence can help meet rising global demand for food and
support a more inclusive and sustainable food system by: (1)
enhancing the resilience of farming methods; (2) reducing
the cost of quality inputs and services to underserved
farmers; and (3) improving market access to facilitate
smallholder farmer integration into regional and global
supply chains. Although nascent in emerging economies,
applications for artificial intelligence in agribusiness
will proliferate as farmers’ access to the Internet and
adoption of smart devices increases across low-income countries. |
