WESTMINSTER, Colo., March 17, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ Weed control in vegetables, flowers and herbs can be incredibly labor intensive, experts with the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) say. There are few herbicides available for these specialty crops, making hand weeding the go to process. Now, though, labor shortages are creating tough challenges for growers and driving food prices higher for consumers.
Could intelligent weeding machines be the answer? Based on technology advances made to date, experts say the answer is likely yes. In fact, artificial intelligence-driven machines are already being used in vegetable crops and in other areas of specialty farming.
While most people are sleeping, Drayk Bowen is training.
Andrean s sophomore linebacker wakes up at 5:45 a.m. Monday through Thursday to work out at an Anytime Fitness near his home in St. John. He uses Mondays and Wednesdays to focus on his upper body and Tuesdays and Thursdays to hone in on his lower body.
Bowen takes a preworkout mixture before he heads to the gym and brings a water bottle with him for what usually amounts to a 30-minute, hard-hitting workout. When he returns home, the sophomore immediately begins his recovery process before heading off to school. I ll make this (drink) called, Energy. It s from the company (IDLife) my dad works for. It helps me hydrate and replenishes my electrolytes, Bowen said. Then, I ll have a protein shake, which has protein powder, collagen, oats, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, peanut butter and milk. Then, I ll have my vitamins. That s like my breakfast every day.
