The Digital, Data-Driven Demonstration Farm

Digital Literacy

There is a growing gap between the technological resources available to agricultural producers, and the utilization of those resources. Farmers need knowledge of software and hardware resources (exposure), high-speed broadband and over-the-air access to Internet resources (connectivity) and the skill (training) to use them. The southeastern region lacks an example farm of the future (integrated farmland, technology, and data) for producers to learn to transfer this technological knowledge to data-driven solutions.
