Our Co-Founder and CEO, Murat Merdin, had the privilege of attending and speaking at the Agriculture 4.0 association’s Impact Summit. It was an event that brought together the brightest minds in the industry, including Serhat Cicekogluğlu from Sente Ventures, to discuss the vision and urgent matters facing agriculture today.
The impact of climate change on agriculture was a primary focus, with a 2-degree shift in temperature having profound effects on crop dynamics. Murat highlighted the critical need for precise surveying and scouting of crops as extreme weather conditions—droughts, heatwaves, and heavy rainfall—become more prevalent.
Moreover, traditional methods face challenges, such as rainfall making fields inaccessible to tractors. This is where DRONEQUBE steps in, utilizing different wavelengths for scouting to potentially boost yields by 20% and as timely disease detection could save from 20% up to 100% of crop yields.
But it’s not just about prevention and adaptation. The summit underscored the importance of traceability and digitalization—creating a digital twin of the vineyard, ensuring every step from soil to sip is accounted for.
