Blue River co-founder and CEO, Jorge Pell, discusses the evolution of technology in agriculture in a recent interview. Pell explains that the shift from hand-tuned algorithms to deep learning revolutionized the industry, allowing for more accurate and efficient crop prediction.
He also discusses the partnership between Blue River and John Deere, highlighting advancements in self-propelled spraying equipment and the ability to process images in milliseconds. Pell emphasizes the importance of continuously refining and expanding the model to improve accuracy and performance.
When asked about the future of agriculture technology, Pell mentions the potential for machine learning to provide farmers with actionable information and improve decision-making. He envisions a future where farmers can accurately assess their crop stands and make informed decisions about inputs based on data-driven insights.
One key focus for Blue River is developing a weed species map, which would provide detailed information on specific weed types in a field. This information could help farmers implement targeted treatment strategies and improve overall crop yield.
In conclusion, Pell emphasizes the importance of leveraging data and technology to drive innovation in agriculture. He believes that machine learning technologies have the potential to revolutionize the industry and provide farmers with valuable insights for more efficient and effective crop management.
