This week saw major advances in AI-driven agriculture worldwide. Over 60% of global farms are now expected to adopt AI precision tools by 2025, using satellite imagery and drones to boost crop yields by up to 30%.

In the United States, PepsiCo and Cargill launched a collaboration to spread regenerative farming practices across 240,000 acres of Iowa cornfields by 2030. Their project uses local advisors to help farmers implement sustainable techniques.

Indian farmers gained access to Google's new AI tools designed to increase incomes through better crop planning. Meanwhile, the UN highlighted how autonomous AI systems could help solve global food insecurity by optimizing farm outputs.

At the IndabaX 2025 conference, experts explained how AI meets agriculture, showcasing real-world applications that help farmers worldwide.
