    Agricultural technology keeps getting more and more precise and based on variation in the field. This is why there is now such a high emphasis on the quality of soil data (which is part of our mission).

    We need to also know who is controling and owning these data and to which extent this leads to an even higher concentration in the food supply chain. Multinationals profit mainly from the trend and I dont belief that every single farmer will have higher income with this technologies.

    What about all the old skills that I (partially) learned from my grandpa? They're going to be much needed when the petroleum becomes too expensive for this type of operation.

      If a government can do something like that with no one protesting, then you already have a really bad problem and this is only a symptom.

    modi has set out a plan for spreading these practices all over India already, and it will be put into practice within 2-3 years.

      Yeah kinda like the 90% of farmers who are now 'unemployed' since tractors were invented. That turned out horrible.
