Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter TwoWhat are the trends impact on rural America's future economy? Some economists indicate that there are five trends reshape to impact rural America' future economy. They include that digital economy will shift future America rural economy. US quality of life will change a lot, the US rural economy will stay uneven, US commodities will compete in global markets and will give less benefit to US rural economy and US new products will revolutionize US agriculture economy. The first aspect impacts to US agriculture economy, the US future rural economy stays uneven. Growth will concentrate in 4 out of 10 rural places and they have scenery, a retail hub, or one next to a city in US. The impact on rural America includes some rural places will try to manage growth , but many places on a quest for new economic engines. Thus, it will bring these questions to US rural economy impact, such as : Who will be US businessmen clients? The struggling farmers? The struggling farm-dependent country? The booming mountain area? The rural area transforming into city? The second aspect impacts to US agriculture economy, due to US commodities will compete in global markets if it will bring a smaller benefit in US rural economy. Then, US farm scale will cut costs and competition fewer US farms and places will depend on farm income. What is the impact of commoditization on rural America? There are more farms depend on area jobs and it creates a new imperative to add value. What is the impact of commodity on US clients? The need for competitive commodities remains, but the payoff for added value is rising and community impacts are important.The third aspect impact to US agriculture economy, new products will revolutionize agriculture. Major, shift from commodities to products, spurred by biotech, means two agriculture in the future and two rural America . Hence, US future agriculture determination the rural economy will be declined. A future new US agriculture supply chain integrator will be caused from the traditional farming supply chain procedure the change to outsourced contractor farming supply chain procedure, such as: In beginning, from farmer will outsource supply chain contract to processor, then contract to distributor and contract to food retailer final step.The fourth aspect impacts to US agriculture economy, what will be two agricultures impact to the US future economy? The first US agriculture impact will be US commodity agriculture. It focuses on production capabilities, farming foods production will be thin margins maintained with technology and big sale. The second US agriculture impact will be product agriculture. It focuses on consumer needs, farming foods production margins will be protected by capturing value and building business relationship. Thus, it will bring these questions concern what the impact of product agriculture which can influence to US economy. How to apply biotechnological agricultural techniques and farming product application to raise US farming productivity? How to build world class agricultural ( farm) producing chains that benefit to US farming produces production method? How can US faming foods producers participation or lead in product chains?

Download or read book Power and Prediction written by Ajay Agrawal and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disruption resulting from the proliferation of AI is coming. The authors of the bestselling Prediction Machines can help you prepare. Artificial intelligence (AI) has impacted many industries around the world—banking and finance, pharmaceuticals, automotive, medical technology, manufacturing, and retail. But it has only just begun its odyssey toward cheaper, better, and faster predictions that drive strategic business decisions. When prediction is taken to the max, industries transform, and with such transformation comes disruption. What is at the root of this? In their bestselling first book, Prediction Machines, eminent economists Ajay Agrawal, Joshua Gans, and Avi Goldfarb explained the simple yet game-changing economics of AI. Now, in Power and Prediction, they go deeper, examining the most basic unit of analysis: the decision. The authors explain that the two key decision-making ingredients are prediction and judgment, and we perform both together in our minds, often without realizing it. The rise of AI is shifting prediction from humans to machines, relieving people from this cognitive load while increasing the speed and accuracy of decisions. This sets the stage for a flourishing of new decisions and has profound implications for system-level innovation. Redesigning systems of interdependent decisions takes time—many industries are in the quiet before the storm—but when these new systems emerge, they can be disruptive on a global scale. Decision-making confers power. In industry, power confers profits; in society, power confers control. This process will have winners and losers, and the authors show how businesses can leverage opportunities, as well as protect their positions. Filled with illuminating insights, rich examples, and practical advice, Power and Prediction is the must-read guide for any business leader or policymaker on how to make the coming AI disruptions work for you rather than against you.
Download or read book Trends of Engineering Systems Evolution and Agricultural Technology written by Ivan Mašín and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new products are certainly decisive for achieving the business success of companies involved in the design and production of agricultural technology. Reducing the risk in the development and introduction of new technical products is the goal of analyzing the evolution of technical products. Effective innovation engineering procedures in the conceptual design phase do not use deductive methods such as brainstorming, but use more advanced methods with varying degrees of detail to describe the identified trends in the evolution of technology. In the case of this chapter, we will focus on so-called trends of engineering systems evolution. They describe natural transitions of the engineering system from one state to another, and are generally valid for all engineering disciplines. These are guides to the directions of development and their individual development phases, which should keep track of innovated products (through innovation, improvements and combinations of successful systems and technologies) so that users' needs are met more. Trends are generally the basis of modern technological forecasting and strategic planning. Unlike conventional forecasting methods, knowledge of trends can more accurately predict the problems associated with the introduction of new technologies and thus increases the probability of success of the chosen solution.
