Although Ivan Grijalva has only been at the LSU AgCenter since January, the recently appointed assistant professor has big goals for his research and farmers in Louisiana.
“I will be happy to just go to the field and see that there is a robot in a crop applying targeted pesticide applications using artificial intelligence,” Grijalva said. “That will be my end goal. To build that technology and contribute to teaching, so the new generation of students can learn how AI and technology can expand their skillsets and make them more competitive.”
