Continual Improvement & Measurement in Soil Health
OpenTEAM is bridging science and technology to fill the gap between soil health testing protocols and the tech ecosystem we are building. For scientists to make data comparable from across the ecosystem, scientific protocols and methodologies must be standardized, efficient, and robust for a range of farm management practices. Through the design of shared technologies and methodologies, OpenTEAM is creating flexible and adaptable protocols for various research goals, management systems, climates, and regions. By developing more consistent field methods when soil testing and using various OpenTEAM tools, farmers and researchers can integrate and compare more data with each other. Sign up for this webinar to get an overview of this process, why creating consistent methodologies is necessary, and how it creates a technology ecosystem that is sustainable.
About The Webinar Series
Over the last 3 years, OpenTEAM has collectively designed and built a free, equitable, open source toolkit that provides a framework for universal access to agricultural knowledge, laying the groundwork to accelerate future development that is responsive to the needs of producers, purchasers, governments and markets. We are incorporating an equity lens into the work that we do so that we can design a technology ecosystem that is more accessible, equitable, and universal for the diverse group of farmers and food companies that are a part of it. By acting as a convener, technology steward, and facilitator, OpenTEAM is sharing agricultural knowledge and increasing interoperability for a cohesive, sustainable technology ecosystem that supports farmers and ranchers globally.
Join us for our “Creating the Ag Tech Ecosystem,” webinar series that features this work, why it is important, and our progress from 2021. You will hear a wide range of panelists from across the OpenTEAM community discuss equity in agriculture, data interoperability & architecture, soil health measurement protocols, and avenues of community building and governance. We will share why incorporating each of these into the sustainable technology ecosystem we are creating are fundamental to the future we envision and how you can get involved in this work.
