Advancing Digital Agriculture at the Farm Level took place via Zoom on Wednesday, August 11 at 9:00 a.m. CT.

In this Farm Foundation Forum, we explored the barriers to and enablers of on-farm digital agriculture practices, broadly including topics such as rural broadband and connectivity, precision agriculture, data management and meeting the user need.
