Artificial intelligence is everywhere—but what does it actually mean for agriculture? In this episode of The Granary, host Damian Mason sits down with Kelly Garrett, Clint Frese, and Lisa Homer from UPL to unpack how AI is already working its way into farm operations and where it could take agriculture next.
From calculating equipment costs and analyzing soil test data to predicting disease pressure and speeding up product development, AI is quickly becoming another tool in the farmer’s toolbox. But with that promise comes plenty of questions: Can AI replace agronomists? Will autonomous systems eventually run farms remotely? And how much trust should growers place in a tool that can be brilliant one minute and off-base the next?
It’s a smart, funny, and practical conversation about the real-world uses of AI in ag, the risks of over-reliance, and what the future might look like when technology starts doing more than just crunching numbers.
This episode of The Granary is presented by UPL.
