Manage episode 362851140 series 3436072
On the first-ever travel episode of Cultivating Curiosity, we head to Tifton, Georgia to visit with George Vellidis and Simer Virk, both faculty in the University of Georgia's Department of Crop and Soil Sciences. Listen in to learn what digital technology is involved with integrative precision agriculture (IPA – the science, not the beer!) and how the data produced helps growers make better decisions, save resources and improves sustainability for producers and the planet.
