Agriculture right now is quickly evolving to focus more on data collection and analysis at every step of the supply chain from growing to packing, selling, and shipping. There's a number of data points out there indicating that this trend won't be slowing down anytime soon. From farmers leveraging IoT devices to enhance their precision agriculture practices, to distributors leveraging data to reduce waste and improve food safety, there is a lot that data can tell us about our food every step of the way. As consumers become more interested in food traceability and the origin story behind the food they buy, there will be greater incentives to make this information more available at the point of purchase as well.
