Tapping Into Crop Conversations With Biosensors
Update: 2025-09-16
Description
Can your crops really talk?
On this episode of The Dirt, host Mike Howell sits down with Co-Founder and Director of Vivent Biosignals, Nigel Wallbridge, to uncover how biosensors are helping farmers tap into the hidden communication networks inside their plants.
Nigel shares how tiny electrodes and AI algorithms work together to detect internal crop signals before they are visible in the field.
From early warnings of drought, disease, and nutrient deficiencies to real-time insights that improve irrigation and soil fertility planning, this technology is giving farmers a new way to "listen" to their crops. Tune in to explore the benefits of biosensors, what they can detect, and how you can implement them on your operation.
