Troy Magney, assistant professor in the Department of Plant Sciences, is just one of the researchers with the Smart Farm Big Idea who are working to turn agricultural data into comprehensible information for farmers.

Taking a Byte Out of Big Data in Farming

Posted by Ann Filmer on February 06, 2020
Troy Magney, Dept. of Plant Sciences, is using methods such as hyperspectral imaging – a remote sensing technique – to measure plant water stress, nutrient status, biomass, and photosynthesis in order to make informed decisions about water and fertilizer management. This is important for global agriculture in the future.

Using Machine Learning to Predict Metabolic Pathways in Tomatoes

Posted by Ann Filmer on June 19, 2019
Understanding the steps in metabolic and biochemical pathways is difficult to determine. Scientists at UC Davis and Ben-Gurion University applied machine learning (artificial intelligence) techniques to this problem in tomatoes, and predicted new, previously unknown metabolic pathways.
