Why technology can change this work

  • autopilot gradually takes control in constrained, well-mapped environments
  • drones and satellites automate field monitoring
  • autonomous machinery takes repetitive operations
  • AI forecasts yield, disease and resource needs

What protects the occupation

  • operation in bad weather, road works and unpredictable human behavior
  • living systems and weather uncertainty
  • a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
  • on-farm repair and decision making
  • biological and economic accountability
