Technology and expertise drive agricultural shifts

Agricultural practices are undergoing significant transformations through the integration of advanced technology and long-term scientific expertise. In Northern Ireland, farmers are adopting artificial intelligence to monitor livestock health. Using the CattleEye application, producers can identify health issues in cattle via AI-powered cameras and algorithms before they become visible to the human eye, improving efficiency and animal welfare.

In Moldova, the sector relies on foundational research and seed production. Alexandru Erhan, a long-time professional at the National Research and Production Center for Seeds in Porumbeni, emphasizes the importance of seed development for national prosperity. However, the industry faces a growing challenge regarding the declining interest of younger generations in agricultural careers, highlighting a need for increased investment and modernization to attract new specialists.
