Manage episode 481529304 series 3587969
There was a time farmers grew food with shovels, hoes and horses. As technology progressed, they used tractors, fertilizers and pesticides. Today, farmers grow food by stringing together binary digits of “Yes” and “No.” That leads us to ask:
Can software sustain and regenerate agriculture?
The Food Chain Radio Show - Podcast with Michael Olson hosts Dan Ryan, CEO of CIBO Technologies, for a conversation about how digital software is transforming food and agriculture.
Topics include how technology made it possible to farm our way out of the dire predictions of 1968’s The Population Bomb; how today’s software technology may make it possible to farm our way out of today’s dire predictions for our future; and whether digital technologies might open the door to a new “Green Revolution” in food and agriculture.
