Farm decision making and AI

A paper from Bill, Jeanette, Will and Alice Long, first presented at a GRDC Farm Business Update. It looks at where AI genuinely helps a farm business decision, and where it can't: it can sharpen your analysis, but it can't carry the regret, and it can't replace the judgement built from years on the place. Includes a worked example of a real soil amelioration decision, put through AI-assisted cost modelling and scenario testing, and a set of practical tools for checking a decision against your head, your heart and your gut before you commit.
