FarmWorks develops miniature Active Inference models and applications for agricultural and ecological contexts. The project has produced a public FarmWorks page and a 2024 publication describing the approach of treating farm and soil systems as active inference agents.

Overview

FarmWorks applies Active Inference concepts to agricultural systems — treating farms, soil ecosystems, and crop cycles as generative models that sense and act in their environments. The project develops mini-projects, models, and publications demonstrating how Active Inference illuminates ecological decision-making and farm management.

Publications and Past Work

The project produced a 2024 publication and maintains a FarmWorks overview page describing the theoretical grounding and practical applications. Work includes model prototypes and documentation for soil and agricultural Active Inference.

Participate

FarmWorks welcomes ecologists, agricultural scientists, modelers, and anyone interested in applying Active Inference to biological and ecological systems.
