Wore my lesson plan on my T-shirt! #drones

Year 3 and still growing strong! The MICRA team met at UNL for our annual All-Hands Meeting sharing progress and shaping the next phase of microbial innovations for resilient agriculture.

We wrapped up a 3-day Smart Farm Challenge Workshop supported by @CHSInc with lots of fun around sensors, drones and data.

Day 1 ✅ of the Smart Farm Challenge Workshop @KStateAgron
We kicked things off with a scavenger hunt, student intros, and hands-on activities in #PrecisionAg.

Summer hustle got us all buzzing! So the team took a break to gather for some good food, music and games. Nothing beats good vibes and great company.

Training day!!! Newest sensor SVC HR 1024i Hyperspectral sensor added to our lab. Thanks to Kansas Water Institute for the huge support. More groundtruthing means stronger algorithms…stay tuned for more research on hyperspectral remote sensing.

Excited to kick off the NACTA Annual Meeting in Edmonton! Thrilled to be part of the executive team as Central Regional Director and grateful for all the amazing opportunities ahead. #NACTA2025 #Edmonton
