Agritech is when people use technology to help farmers grow crops and raise animals.
So imagine your grandma's garden. She plants seeds and waters them every day. She makes sure the soil has enough minerals for the plants to grow tall and strong. And when it's time to harvest, she comes with her basket and picks all the veggies and fruits.
Agritech does the same thing, but using machines and computers. Instead of watering the plants by hand, we have machines called irrigation systems that can water fields automatically. Some irrigation systems can even detect when the soil is too dry, so they can water the plants before they start to wilt.
We also have machines that can plant and harvest crops. These machines are called planters and harvesters. They can work day and night, and they’re very fast.
Another technology we use in agritech is sensors. We put sensors on the plants that measure things like temperature, humidity, and soil conditions. We can use this information to make sure the plants are healthy and growing well.
In agritech, we also use drones, which are like flying robots. Farmers use drones to take pictures of their fields from above, so they can see how the plants are growing. They can also use drones to spray pesticides or fertilizers on the plants.
So agritech is all about using technology to help farmers grow food more efficiently, faster and better. And with more food, we have more to eat and less hunger in the world.
