Ways the Agriculture Industry is Changing Rapidly

If you are running a business that is in the field of agriculture at all, there are a whole host of changes that are happening at a rapid rate. You certainly need to make sure that you are keeping one eye on these as they are happening - no matter whether you run a business that is directly related to this area or you are simply adjacent to it. Here are just a few of the main ways that the agriculture industry is changing at the moment.

Rapid advances in tech

Like almost every other industry on the planet, the number of changes that are occurring in the agriculture industry are staggering. If you don’t keep a close eye on these changes, you are more than likely to be left behind the people that are. So, you will need to look closer at the future of biotechnology in agriculture amongst other things. There are also several other distinct ways that tech is changing agriculture. First of all, there is the increased mechanization and automation that is occurring. This is likely to be developed further by the AI revolution that is happening at an increasingly rapid rate. Precision farming is also an area that is developing at a rapid rate. This essentially means more closely monitoring a whole range of different areas from pest control to research management. On top of this, there is also a move towards methods of more urban farming, which often looks at the possibility of vertical farms as well as those that can take place in an indoor environment.

Changes in the environment

As the effects of climate change continue to matter in a whole host of different areas, it is certainly the case that this is going to make a difference to the world of agriculture. There are more and more practices that are being developed specifically to ensure that they are resistant to changes in the environment. This means that harvests can be just as big no matter what is going on in the external world. As weather patterns become more and more unpredictable, this is going to become increasingly vital.

Focus on sustainability

Again, this is a concern that impacts a lot of different industries, but there is no doubt that sustainability is going to have an impact on the world of agriculture. Ultimately, if things cannot be done in a sustainable way, this is going to have a huge effect on the world. This comes in a few different forms, but it certainly places focus on keeping soil health as good as possible, as well as keeping pesticide and fertilizer pollution down as low as it can be.

Changes in diet

There has been a big push towards vegetarianism and veganism over the past few years. There is no doubt that these changes in diet then have to be reflected in the agricultural industry as well.

While there are many other changes that could be discussed, these are just a few of them.

Blockchain for Sustainability: Cutting Through the Hype with Strategic Communication

By Julie Starr • April 28, 2025

As blockchain continues to gain traction in sustainability circles—from tracking carbon credits to improving supply chain transparency—more organizations are exploring how these emerging tools might support their ESG goals.

6 Things All Modern Businesses Need in 2025

By Julie Starr • April 22, 2025

If you’re starting your own business, then you know all too well that it’s equally an exciting and overwhelming time. There’s so much to think about, and you want to get it right from day one. But it doesn’t have to be as overwhelming as you might think. Let’s go through everything your new business needs to hit the ground running this year. A Clear Business Plan Before anything else, take the time to figure out your game plan. This doesn’t need to be a long, boring document that you’ll never look at again. Think of it as a simple guide that answers three key questions: Who are you selling to? What are you offering? And how are you going to get noticed? Once you’ve written that down, you can always tweak it as your business grows. From a communications standpoint, clarity on your audience and value proposition also sets the foundation for authentic brand storytelling—something Taiga Company helps clients refine at every stage. Responsible Financial Management Money is one of those things that can make or break a business. The good news is you don’t need a finance degree to get it right. Start with a simple budget. Know how much is coming in, what’s going out, and what you’re setting aside. Think about things like stock, marketing, bills and wages if you’re hiring. Keep it realistic and keep it updated. Doing this from day one will make life much easier later. Reliable Cloud Services In 2025, storing everything on your laptop isn’t really a safe bet. Files go missing, computers break, and you don’t want to lose important stuff. That’s where cloud services come in. They keep your files secure, backed up and easy to access from anywhere. Whether it’s documents, customer info or creative work, having it all saved online gives you peace of mind. And when you're building a business in a digital-first world, having secure, accessible assets also means your team can collaborate more efficiently across channels—essential for strong communications. Flexible Payment Options Most people don’t carry cash anymore, so if you’re only accepting it, you’re going to lose sales. Get yourself a card reader that takes all the usual stuff like debit cards, credit cards, contactless and Apple Pay. The easier you make it for someone to pay you, the more likely they are to buy. Simple as that. A Basic Website Even if you’re not selling online, you still need a website. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Just something that tells people who you are, what you do, and how they can contact you. Think of your site as your digital front door. If someone hears about your business, chances are they’ll look you up online. Make sure what they find actually helps them. A clear website is also one of the most powerful communication tools your business has. We work with clients to ensure their digital presence reflects their story, purpose, and value. A Way to Spread the Word You can’t rely on people just stumbling across your business. You’ve got to put yourself out there. Social media is a great start, but don’t stop there. Think email newsletters , posters in your local area or even just chatting about your work whenever it comes up naturally. The more you talk about your business, the more others will too. Starting a business in 2025 is a big move, but it doesn’t have to feel impossible. Get the basics in place, stay flexible and keep learning. With the right tools and the right message, you can build momentum and create connection. Taiga Company helps growing businesses translate operational essentials into brand trust and long-term impact.
