Don’t Miss These Popular Smart Farming Week Stories
Farm Journal’s Smart Farming Week is an annual week-long emphasis on innovation in agriculture. The goal is to encourage you to explore and prioritize the technology, tools and practices that will help you farm smarter. Innovation today ensures an efficient, productive and sustainable tomorrow.
As you read these words, our first Smart Farming Week (powered by Farm Journal) is drawing close to wrapping up (we’ll have more content rolling out on AgWeb.com and elsewhere on Saturday), and Saint Patrick’s Day and the promise of another spring planting season lie precariously around the bend.
From the sales team to our AgDay TV broadcast crew to the entire editorial team (spanning our full breadth of Farm Journal brands), as well as to all of the folks that work in the background (Audience Development, Marketing, Administration – apologies if I have forgotten anyone!), it has truly been a concerted all hands-on-deck team effort these last five days to focus on sharing impactful stories about technology and the evolution of what we now refer to as Smart Farming.
As Farm Journal’s technology and machinery editor, I think I can speak for the greater team here and offer our sincere collective hope that you’ve enjoyed this first iteration of Smart Farming Week. We intend to make this content push a regular service to you, the reader, and as such we’ll meet soon as a team to go over what worked, what didn’t, and where we see this project going in the near term. Just as farmers are always evaluating and adjusting and striving to do better, we do our best to siphon some of that determined spirit into our own huddles and weekly Zoom meetings.
We also have another focused Farm Journal content push in the works and coming soon, our Next Gen Spotlight Series Week. And, of course we think you should stick with us all year as we’ll continue to cover Smart Farming news and stories in perpetuity.
Below is a quick recap of some of the most viewed pieces of Smart Farming Week content thus far in case you missed something and would like to catch up. And if you have any ideas for future Smart Farming stories, be it in print, digital, or even for the broadcast crew, please reach out via email to Mgrassi@farmjournal.com and share those with me.
Hoping you all have a restful and fun weekend!
