Comment on Could AI robots with lasers make herbicides – and farm workers – obsolete?

Comments

I think this technology is pretty exciting because it could also allow regenerative farming to be organic - as far as I understand that is currently impossible because you have to apply herbicides when you don't plow your land. That would be a win both for the environment and the climate.

There are no spray, no till farms. Cover crops are a great way to suppress weeds, and then you harvest, cut down, and/or graze animals on the cover crops to help create a mulch layer on the soil.

Thank you, I didn't know that.
