UAE Farms See Up To 30% Savings with AI Tools

Why this is here: Soyl Food’s biostimulant, tested in 50°C conditions, boosted vegetable yields by 35 percent and measurably improved soil microbial activity.

Three startups presented data at the Emirates Agriculture Conference and Exhibition 2026 in Al Ain, UAE, showing how artificial intelligence is changing farming practices. INNOfarms.ai developed Aura, an AI platform giving farmers real-time market intelligence to improve procurement decisions. A year-long trial on a UAE farm resulted in savings of 20 to 30 percent.

Soyl Food introduced an AI-optimized biostimulant, tested in Pakistan, that increased vegetable yields by 35 percent while also improving soil health. Raee, a new company, is digitizing livestock records with RFID chips and a platform for tracking animal health and lineage, moving away from paper-based systems.

Currently, these technologies require IoT probes and reliable data input, which can be challenging to implement with traditionally skeptical farmers. The long-term impact of these solutions on larger agricultural systems remains to be seen, but the companies continue to refine their approaches.
