Precision agriculture uses computer science to make farms more efficient and reduce climate change

On an 8,000-acre family farm in Eastern Washington, Microsoft Research helps deploy precision agriculture, putting AI and powerful data analysis tools in the hands of an eighth-generation farmer, enabling him to adapt to climate extremes and run a more efficient farm. The microclimate data can also help industries like oil and gas, supply chain, and wind and solar power, which operate in remote areas with limited connectivity.
