Motion NDM6143 Lee Waters, Huw Irranca-Davies, Simon Thomas

To propose that the National Assembly for Wales:

1. Recognises the enormous potential benefits of the application of ‘big data’ in agriculture.

2. Notes the growth in research and development in precision agriculture as a way of increasing yields, maximising the use of scarce resources and minimising the use of harmful chemicals.

3. Calls on the Welsh Government to develop a strategy to put Wales at the forefront of the development of precision agriculture.
