Rebound GHG Effects in AgriTech

In Scotland, GHG emissions arising from agriculture and farming contribute significantly to the overall total. Increasingly, technology is seen as a way to improve efficiency and therefore reduce these emissions. In this work, we explore how this AgriTech forms a complex case study for low carbon computing with a range of opportunities and tensions for both low carbon ICT and its utilisation. We provide the LOCO community with an overview of AgriTech in dairy farming and highlight a number of key areas of future work.
