Inhalt: Humanity faces the looming challenge of feeding more people, with less labour and resources. Early adoption of biological and physical technologies has allowed agriculturalists to stay a step ahead of this challenge. This book provides a glimpse of what is possible and encourages engineers and agriculturalists to explore how radio-frequency and microwave systems might further enhance the agricultural industry.
