In this 2023 article published in the journal
F1000Research, Williamson
et al. identify and discuss "eight key challenges in data management that must be addressed to further unlock the potential of [artificial intelligence] in crop and agronomic research." Noting the state of the agricultural research landscape and growing potentials of artificial intelligence and machine learning in the field, the authors perform a literature review that better shapes the nuances of those eight key challenges: data heterogeneity, data selection and digitization, data linkages, standardization and curation of data, sufficient training and ground truth data, system access, data access, and engagement. After examining these challenges in detail, the authors conclude there's a definitive "need for a more systemic change in how research in this domain is conducted, incentivized, supported, and regulated," with aspects such as stronger collaboration, more efficient machine learning methods, improved data curation, and improved data management methods.
