Today’s farms are beginning to look a lot more like smart cities. Growers use innovative tools like sensors, computer vision, and artificial intelligence (AI) to acquire a deeper understanding of their crops. These methods help farmers use data to make better decisions, discover inefficiencies, and unlock new insights into food production and resource management. The FarmBeats for Students program brings these modern techniques into the hands of today’s learners.
The program combines an affordable hardware kit with curated curriculum and activities designed to give students hands-on experience in precision agriculture. The learning progression enables students to easily see the impact of modern tools and the opportunities within agriculture.
Through the FarmBeats for Students program, students build a garden monitoring system and learn about AI, data analysis, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Visit aka.ms/FBFS to get started!
