Farmers from Cameroon to southern Spain to Germany are testing whether AI can keep food production viable as soils deplete and droughts spread. In Cameroon, Adamou Nchange Kouotou has built a smartphone app that scans crops to identify disease and pests and gives small farmers direct treatment instructions. In Spain's greenhouse belt, Joaquín Soriano Fernandez uses sensors and an irrigation algorithm to cut water use to the drop, while in Madrid engineer Roemi Fernandez Saavedra demonstrates a two-armed harvesting robot trained to spot ripe tomatoes and eggplants. A company canteen in Lünen, Germany runs an AI system that forecasts lunch demand to cut into the eleven million tons of food Germany wastes annually. Throughout, Ameca, billed as the world's most advanced humanoid robot, appears between segments to weigh in on what AI can and cannot fix. The film moves briskly between these case studies, using real farms, labs, and kitchens rather than staged demonstrations, and lets the people building these tools describe both the gains and the ethical friction points themselves.
