Smart agriculture technology attaches directly to underside of leaves for monitoring plants

With growing concerns over climate change and overpopulation, we urgently need to boost agricultural productivity. With the goal of creating a way to easily tell whether a plant is thriving or dying, a leaf-mounted sensor was created by researchers at Tohoku University. This small but mighty technology could help improve crop yields and resource management in order to meet ever-growing demands. With growing concerns over climate change and overpopulation, we urgently need to boost agricultural productivity.
