As climate change and global population growth pose ever greater challenges for agriculture, Israeli technology offers a wealth of inventions and advanced tools to help farmers adapt. At an avocado ...

Precision pollination research will use sensors and AI to link pollinator activity with fruit set, yield and quality.

Given our general reliance on something called “food” you’d think the issue of pollination — and its general decline — might be higher up the world’s agenda. Over 80% of crops require insect ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. MIT researchers are designing robotic insects capable of swarming from mechanical hives to handle precise pollination tasks ...

Pollination is a crucial part of global food production. And yet, bee populations continue to decline as we rip away their habitats, continue to fail in our fight against climate change, and use ...

The loss of pollinators, such as bees, is a huge challenge for global biodiversity and affects humanity by causing problems in food production. Researchers have now developed the first passively ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - With a more efficient method for artificial pollination, farmers in the future could grow fruits and vegetables inside multilevel warehouses, boosting yields while mitigating some ...

Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed advanced robotic insects that could aid farming through artificial pollination. They could prove especially useful in the ...

In an effort to save the bees and buttress the global food supply, Edete, an Israel-based agricultural technology company, has set out to reduce the strain on bees by assisting them with crop ...
