AgriTech Review

Indoor farms, also known as vertical farms, are popular among agricultural researchers and are expanding across the agricultural industry. Some benefits they have over outdoor farms include the year-round production of food crops, less water and land requirements, and they don't need pesticides. They also reduce food waste and carbon emissions from shipping. Additionally, some studies indicate that indoor farms produce more nutritious food for urban communities.

Dining on the moon or Mars might seem like a fantasy reserved for science fiction, but researchers are investigating how it could become a reality. Their efforts to recycle plant and human waste into a fertilizer material—turning the barren surfaces of the moon and Mars into fertile fields that might be suitable for extraterrestrial agriculture—are described in ACS Earth and Space Chemistry.

In the highland regions of Ethiopia, a groundbreaking study has demonstrated the profound impact of conservation agriculture techniques on soil and water preservation, as well as on agricultural productivity.

The world's conservation efforts over recent decades have made great strides in slowing biodiversity loss, according to international and Australian researchers who argue that referring to the world's current biodiversity crisis in terms such as 'the sixth extinction' is "alarmist". The researchers reviewed existing research to investigate the impact of conservation efforts on slowing global extinction rates, rescuing declining populations and protecting important natural habitats. They say while the current state of biodiversity is "dire", there is evidence of success in all three areas as a result of conservation efforts, and argue that there should be more focus on clearly and transparently measuring the success and failure of conservation efforts.

arXiv:2602.18835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Food waste management is critical for sustainability, yet inorganic contaminants hinder recycling potential. Robotic automation presents a compelling approach to this challenge by accelerating the sorting process through automated contaminant removal. Still, the diverse and unpredictable nature of contaminants creates major challenges for robotic grasping. Benchmarking frameworks are critical for evaluating challenges from various perspectives. However, existing protocols rely on limited simulation datasets, prioritise simple metrics such as success rate, and overlook key object and environment-related pre-grasp conditions. This paper introduces GRAB, a comprehensive Grasping Real-World Article Benchmarking framework that addresses this gap by integrating diverse deformable objects, advanced grasp-pose-estimation vision, and, importantly, pre-grasp conditions, establishing a set of critical graspability metrics.

Rice, maize and cassava together account for roughly 11% of total global deforestation - more than cocoa, coffee, and rubber - according to Swedish researchers who analysed agriculture-linked deforestation between 2001 and 2022. The study was based on computer simulations called the 'Deforestation Driver and Carbon Emissions (DeDuCE) model', which combines satellite data on tree cover loss with agricultural data across 184 food types in 179 countries. In total, they say, 121 million hectares of forest were lost from 2001 to 2022 as croplands, pastures, and forest plantations expanded, resulting in 41.2 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. Unlike some crop types which are concentrated in specific regions, deforestation from staple foods was evenly distributed around the world, the researchers add. The findings suggest staple crops should not be overlooked in global efforts to reduce deforestation, they conclude.

Plants have an immune system, like people, and when it is triggered by threats like disease or pests, a plant's defenses are activated. But there's a downside to this protective mechanism: the plant's growth is suppressed when its immune system is turned on. Colorado State University researchers have found a way to boost a plant's growth while maintaining its immunity through a hormone treatment that shows promise for food production.

Deep in the Arctic north, drained peatlands—once massive carbon vaults built over thousands of years—are quietly leaking greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. But new field research from northern Norway suggests there’s a powerful way to slow that loss: raise the water level. In a two-year study, scientists found that restoring higher groundwater levels in cultivated Arctic peatlands dramatically cut carbon dioxide emissions, and in some cases even tipped the balance so the land absorbed more CO₂ than it released.
