Artificial Intelligence Adoption in Agriculture to Triple in Coming Years

The theme of Agritechnica 2025, which will be held fr om November 9 to 15 in Hanover, is designated as Touch Smart Efficiency. The event organizer, DLG (German Agricultural Society), emphasizes that digitalization is becoming an integral part of agribusiness: from yield and resource management to process automation and precise forecasting.

According to DLG experts, AI-based technologies have already proven effective in yield prediction, plant protection, and cost management tasks, as well as reducing the impact of the human factor in agricultural management.

Modern solutions cover a wide range of tasks:

• AI-based pest traps;

• predictive plant protection systems;

• weather and soil condition monitoring applications;

• intelligent grain storage;

• automated documentation and resource accounting.

At the same time, farmers are increasingly turning to generative AI tools, including ChatGPT, for report preparation, analytics, and technical consultations. However, experts warn that such systems require human data verification due to potential inaccuracies.

Despite the widespread adoption of technologies, digitalization is uneven. Small farms face high costs for equipment and software, and the lack of reliable internet access remains a challenge for rural areas.

According to a study by Continental and Innofact, infrastructure availability and personnel training will be key conditions for further growth in the agro-AI market.

One of the central events will be Digital Farming Day, which will take place on November 13 in Pavilion 21, wh ere leading companies and researchers will present the latest developments in automation, robotics, and artificial intelligence.

These solutions are expected to set the standards for digital agriculture in the coming years, forming the basis for sustainable, economically efficient, and environmentally responsible agricultural production.
