Acerca deste livro eletrónico

Autonomous Farm Vehicles explores the burgeoning field of automation in agriculture, focusing on self-driving tractors and agricultural drones. It examines how these technologies are poised to revolutionize food production, potentially solving challenges related to labor shortages and increasing global food demand. Readers will discover how autonomous vehicles utilize advanced sensors like GPS and LiDAR, coupled with sophisticated algorithms, to optimize farming practices. The book also delves into the practical advantages, such as enhanced efficiency in resource management and improved crop yields, while considering the broader ethical, economic, and environmental implications of this technological shift.

The book's approach is to unpack both the technologies and their real-world impacts, using a combination of academic research, industry reports, and field trial data. Case studies illustrate successful implementations on farms. It moves from an introduction to autonomous vehicle technology and specific applications, like self-driving tractors, to an analysis of economic and environmental consequences. Finally, it culminates in a discussion of ethical and societal issues.

This book stands out by offering a balanced perspective, acknowledging both the potential benefits and drawbacks of autonomous farm vehicles. It doesn't shy away from controversial subjects like job displacement and data privacy, making it an invaluable resource for agricultural professionals, policymakers, and anyone keen to understand the future of food production and sustainable agriculture.
