NIU STEM Café: Why an Acre Matters: How Digital Technology is Transforming Agriculture

April 12 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Now the agricultural revolution has gone digital, with technologies such as GPS, yield monitors and cloud-based data management reshaping the way farmers work. As the global population increases, farmers need to produce more crops with fewer resources – and they want to do this in a way that’s sustainable environmentally and economically.
