When Did Farming Become a Technology Business?

Agriculture in Africa has transformed into a multi-billion-dollar commercial ecosystem where food production, veterinary biotechnology, climate intelligence, and data analytics intersect. As multinational agritech firms and regional agribusinesses navigate this convergence, technical innovation alone is no longer enough to secure adoption.
