Day at the Field! 🌽🚜

We had the opportunity to welcome military personnel from different parts of the world to KSU for a field day focused on precision agriculture. During the event, we demonstrated how advanced sensors and precision agriculture technologies are used to monitor ...crops, collect high-quality data, and support more efficient and sustainable agricultural management.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this special event.

Today we said goodbye to our Brazilian intern, Rafael, after an incredible year in our lab.

We are truly grateful for all of your hard work, dedication, and support in both the field and the laboratory. It has been a pleasure working with you, and we have learned so much from you along the... way.

Hey K-State Wildcats, if you are chilling around Manhattan and still looking for a summer job, we would love to chat. Join our team to participate in data collection and learn about greenhouse experiments and research farm studies in precision agriculture. Plus a fun team of students and scholars ...to work with. 😊 @ksuagronomy

The future of farming is here, and technology is our greatest ally. 🌱🚀 We had the privilege of being part of the Smart Farm Challenge Organized by @ksuagronomy , where innovation meets precision agriculture.
From drones to soil sensors and data analysis: three intense days of hands-on ...learning, connecting with industry experts, and looking toward the future. Thanks to everyone who made this experience possible! 🚜💻

We take technology directly to the field 💻🛜. Our team was in Garden City installing AquaSpy and Sentek sensors, as well as rain gauges. These tools will enable us to obtain accurate data to optimize crop management. 🌾
