Traditionally, agriculture was guided by experience. Farmers observing their fields, feeling the soil, and looking to the sky for rain. For centuries, that was enough. But today, the challenges are greater: climate change, population growth, emerging diseases, and resource scarcity. The question is no longer just “How do we grow more food?” but “How do
