I took advantage of some recent downtime to put my "strategic foresight hat" on and write down some thoughts on a possible future that excites me: applying "mass customization" technologies to agriculture and other land management to allow "variety at scale". This article was written for designers, strategists, and technologists who have never considered agriculture and land use as an exciting area before: https://lnkd.in/g-xb2GTJ

Excited to be speaking at the Convergence conference in Regina tomorrow. I’ll be presenting on the topic "From Dirt to Dollars – The Next Step in Using Data in Modern Agriculture," exploring how the evolving landscape of agriculture can benefit from data-driven decision-making. Can you predict the future by utilizing the past? And if so, will the next step in agriculture be removing the farmer from the decision? Will I see you there? Let's connect.

Greetings all! I've been asked several times recently about the timing of my next post, so here goes. The definition of the word technology is "the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes." If you think about it, that definition is spot on. I've had the privilege over the past few months to see this in action with a company based in Indianapolis called Taranis. For many years both farmers and ag retailers have been working together so both can achieve success. However, once a crop emerges, neither the grower nor the retailer really knows what is happening in those fields to the extent they would like to - this can lead to less-than-ideal decision making when it comes to stand count issues or decisions with inputs such as crop protection and fertilizer products. Taranis solves this problem for both parties, using technology. Using drones, satellites, high resolution cameras, and groundbreaking software, stand counts, weeds, diseases, insects, and nutrition issues are seen from the sky - something a Ph.D. friend recently told me "Steve, this is what the ag industry has been waiting for - a "birds eye view" of the fields with amazing clarity. This is an amazing example of "using scientific knowledge for practical purposes." For more information, go to acreforward.com
