EOS Data Analytics Provides Data On Sowing In Ukraine

EOS Data Analytics (EOSDA), a global provider of AI-powered satellite imagery analytics and a precision agriculture expert in Ukraine, has launched a custom project to deliver data analysis on the Ukrainian sowing season in 2022.

Upon the clients’ specific requests from Europe to South America, EOSDA offers custom solutions that could be provided on a field, regional, state or country level. The project will benefit not only farmers but all agriculture-engaged businesses and institutions, including agri-banks, food producers, commercial growers, and input suppliers.

Ukraine is one of the world’s largest producers and exporters of wheat and corn — the country accounts for about 10% and 16% of these crops, correspondingly, in the global export. More than 400 million people worldwide depend on Ukrainian grain supplies. Normally, Ukraine exports 4–5 million tons of grain monthly, but as of now, this volume has almost tenfold dropped. In 2022, considering that at least a third of the country’s agricultural areas won’t be planted, Ukraine is projected to produce as little as 63 million tons of grain and oilseeds, significantly impacting the world food market.

The company has been carrying out crop classification in Ukraine, on regions and country level each year since 2016, utilizing a proprietary model based on AI and neural network.

Alberta Honey: A Day at Molenkamp Honey Farms

Video: Alberta Honey: A Day at Molenkamp Honey Farms

When was the last time you read the label on your honey?

We spent a day at Molenkamp Honey Farms with Michael Molenkamp, who has been keeping bees for 17 seasons and runs three to four thousand hives. In mid-September, he was finishing treatments and getting his bees ready for winter, and he walked us through how Alberta honey gets made.

Alberta has just 150 commercial beekeepers running 300,000 colonies, and together they produce 40% of Canada’s honey. Long summer days and golden canola fields give Alberta honey a light flavour that’s hard to match anywhere else.

Molenkamp calls Alberta beekeepers some of the most resilient farmers he knows. There’s plenty of Alberta honey to go around, but a lot on our shelves isn’t from here, so his ask is simple. Give the label a second look and choose honey made by Alberta beekeepers, or buy straight from a beekeeper near you.
