The Precision Farming Connection

 

Networking 21st Century Digital Farming Operations


June 12th .  2025 . 14:00 UK Time (UK Time)

With the world's population currently at 8 Billion and set to hit 10 billion by the mid-century, increased efficiencies in food production driven by escalating risk of famine and resulting crop failure due to climate change, is a major human imperative. IoT networks, enhanced by AI capabilities, drone deployments, advancements in agricultural machinery and other innovations will monitor crops and livestock to inform important harvesting and animal welfare decisions, as we advance towards the ultimate goal of worldwide food security.  Underpinning this is the necessity of robust, reliable and real-time connectivity... and given the remote nature of almost all farming operations the critical requirement of hyperconverged terrestrial + non-terrestrial hybrid networks.

What Agriculture Really Needs from Space: Trust, Timing, and Targeted Insight

John Rhymes, Group Head Digital

Synopsis
Satellite data is everywhere, but clarity is rare. The promise of precision agriculture often stalls because platforms overstate certainty or overwhelm users with complexity. This talk explores why real land intelligence depends not just on data, but on trust, timing, and the willingness to confront uncertainty.  We explore how Aspia’s approach delivers actionable insight at the right resolution, whether for farmers, agronomists, insurers, or the wider supply chain. By combining hyper-local sensing with globally contextualised learning, we show how precision can finally move beyond specialist use into mainstream adoption.
