Agriculture will be the field with the greatest digitization in the coming years; intelligence artificial in agriculture will be massive and unstoppable. The capability of drones is constantly expanding, the devices being equipped with high–definition photo–video cameras, thermal imaging sensors, infrared filming, parcel mapping and zoning systems, and simultaneously the volume of data increases fast. In the long term, "connected farms" will prove extremely valuable to the entire population of the planet considering the need to maximize production agricultural.
