During the inaugural session on Nov. 4, more than 50 faculty, staff and graduate students from research, teaching and Extension participated in the conversation. The event brought together colleagues from multiple IANR units to share ongoing work in digital agriculture, build connections and identify opportunities to advance collaborative innovation to build the Digital Agriculture Hub.
The Nebraska Digital Agriculture Hub will be a collaborative platform — physical, virtual, hybrid — centered at the University of Nebraska that serves as a convergence point for research, innovation, education and engagement in digital agriculture. It brings together university expertise, public stakeholders, industry partners, producers and technology developers to accelerate the adoption, co-creation and impact of data-driven agricultural solutions.
The mission of the Nebraska Digital Agriculture Hub is to catalyze interdisciplinary research, education and Extension that accelerates the adoption of digital technologies across crop, livestock and natural resource systems.
