The agricultural sector is no stranger to the new technologies and paradigms<\/strong> that affect other sectors linked to the production, transformation, and\/or distribution of any type of good or service.<\/p>\n

An evident example of this is all the changes that are taking place in search of improving efficiency in the use of water throughout its integral cycle<\/strong>, optimizing its management, reducing the weak points of the chain \u2013 losses, leaks, etc. \u2013 and protecting itself against present and future risks \u2013 physical sabotage and cyber threats. Evidently, the agricultural sector is a main actor in said cycle. And water management is not its only point of improvement. <\/p>\n

The sector<\/strong> Spanish agricultural sector has so far been skeptical and conservative with the advancement of new technologies<\/strong> and with good reason<\/strong>, mistakes are costly, and the margin for maneuver is narrow for risky adventures. That does not mean that large bets and investments are not made, but these have always been more focused on machinery, infrastructure, or civil works that have an immediate impact. <\/p>\n

But being skeptical does not mean being careless<\/strong>; we are at a moment when technological atheism can be considered recklessness both from a business and ecological point of view, as well as from the point of view of the personnel working on the farm, in the same way that the future is largely mortgaged.<\/p>\n

It is evident that there are scenarios that today seem distant \u2013 but not impossible \u2013 that provide an understandable advantage<\/strong>, such as the autonomous operation of agricultural machinery, automation of agricultural warehouses and silos, or the use of drones to provoke or prevent precipitation. But the remarkable fact is that there are currently already tools, technologies, and knowledge to carry out projects that will mean an improvement of the sector<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

The existence of new transmission technologies<\/strong>, the improvement of coverage, low-consumption tools, the improvement of batteries, the use of geolocation, powerful data analysis software, the interconnection of systems\u2026 all this allows ideas with an immediate impact to ALREADY be a reality such as<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
