Agriculture and farming are two of the oldest and most important professions in the world. Since the beginning of humanity, our ancestors discovered that agriculture, in its earlier form back in that time, was their main source of food. Since then, agriculture has come a long way in how we farm and grow crops thanks to various technologies. Yet, it seems that humanity is heady towards very challenging food problems. First of all, we are currently dealing with lots of environmental concerns that make experts believe that soil fertility is rapidly decreasing. This will have a major impact on food production. Secondly, it is believed that by 2050, the global population will reach almost 10 billion people. And, as our current agricultural system stands, experts believe that we won't be able to produce enough food to feed everybody. In fact, experts believe that global food production must increase by 70% by 2050 to meet population growth demands. Pretty shocking and scarring, right? So, is there anything that will help us address these problems before they lead to a global lack of food situation? Well, we would say that today, agriculture technology is our best bet. And, over the past century, it seems that technology use in this sector increases rapidly worldwide. The worldwide agriculture industry is now turning to technology to get better at producing food. From technologies that help us use less land to produce more crops and technologies that significantly impact the productivity and yield of those farmed areas, technology will make agriculture look very different from today in the future.
