Robotic metal arms may damage tree limbs — so Washington State University researchers created a soft, inflatable robot arm to pick apples.
We’ve come a long way from the Old Farmer’s Almanac: These days, when farmers need to know about tomorrow’s weather — or next month’s weather — they can get a close-to-home forecast from Washington State University’s AgWeatherNet.
A new tool developed by Washington State University researchers could someday provide daily or weekly forecasts of water availability in the mountains similar to a weather forecast that agencies could use for important water management decisions.
A low-cost, simple robotic apple picker arm developed by Washington State University researchers may someday help with fruit picking and other farm chores.
This fall, scientists in the College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences (CAHNRS) are joining forces with Washington high schools in a project that helps teens gain firsthand experience with weather-sensing technology.
