We are in the process of organizing The Desert Difference: A Showcase of AgTech Opportunities for Growing in the Desert. The two-day event will be held November 13-14th in Yuma, AZ. The first day will be a Field Day, the second will be a standard conference with keynote speakers and breakout sessions. Details of the conference will be coming soon. The focus of this article is the Field Day. As with our previous AgTech Field Days, the workshop will feature the latest ag technologies being demonstrated in the field. I’ve been reaching out to multiple companies but am sure I’m not aware of all the cutting-edge technologies out there. We would like to showcase as many innovative ag technologies as possible, so please contact me if you are interested in demoing your equipment or know someone that is. It’s an open invitation - private companies, and university and government researchers are all welcome!
