What role do you think automation will play in agriculture’s future? Automation is rapidly changing the landscape of agriculture, from planting to harvesting. At Techponics, our fully automated system for leafy greens is already helping farmers optimize production and reduce labor dependency. Do you think automated systems will fully take over, or will there always be a need for human hands in the process? #AutomationInFarming #AgriTech #Hydroponics #SmartFarming #Techponics
