On the Horizon: Farm Tech

Farm security with AgCloud’s Grant Sutton

“But there's some more organised criminals that have a bit more nous about how they’ll tackle a farm, and they'll go to power, and they'll cut power. That can disable the system if it's not planned correctly. 

“It can cause the internet to go down. Say for example, so there's no alerts coming through, or it could stop a camera from working altogether.” 

In our sixth episode, sponsored by GE Silos, we chat with AgCloud’s Grant Sutton. Grant shares the latest advancements in farm security cameras. The discussion covers AI improvements, underground sensors, systems, connections, power and internet requirements, functions, notifications, support and planning.
