This meetup is the first in a series and will focus on understanding the problems that farmers and ranchers and ag/food processors face, the potential technology solutions that can help and where the gaps are between problems, solutions, and opportunities. Students will also learn about ways in which they might participate in the future of agriculture and food innovation and technology via jobs or projects.
We hope to see you there!
