This is an interesting read about deep learning (I've been using it to map wheat yield using remote sensing). You've got to love an article that leads with a reference to Edwin Abbot's "Flatland" pnas.org/content/117/48/3003ā¦

How can data collected on broadacre farms be combined with biophysical and agro-economic models to help growers improve management decisions? Dr Fiona Evans @bigagdata is on a quest to figure it out. Read about it in #PrecisionAgNews

A recent review of one of my postdoctoral researchers' articles stated: 'The article should be written impersonally, avoiding the word "we"'. My opinion is that this recommendation is antiquated and unnecessary. What do you guys think?

About a year ago, I wrote myself a āresearch philosophyā and stuck it to my wall.
When research opportunities have come up, Iāve used it to decide whether to go for them or not.
I canāt tell you how useful and liberating itās been
