For the #agchatoz audience. We’ve just started work on a $1.1M Landcare funded project led by @AKAgtech to turn soil science into digital tools for farmers. Over 3 years we’ll build innovative tools to help farmers better manage soil. To be involved visit soiltechproject.org/

I picked up a couple tweets about chaff lining and wondered what it was. Turns out to be a low cost, low tech way of dealing with weeds, good in dry years #chafflining. Check this out if you are curious like me bit.ly/2AizPwG

Once in a life time opportunity, got to take my 100 year old Grandma out for a combine ride. She still shakes her head at all the technology we have available for farming.

Why big data hasn’t made a big dent on farm - did anyone ask a farmer? Looking frwd to seeing the Future Farm project and the results and how it influences the adoption of soil sensors for in put mgmt. Site specific adoption got a long way to go compared to bolt on technologies!
