Precision Agriculture and Angry Optimism

Dr. Kenneth Cassman joins to explore the state of innovation in
agriculture. Where are the knowledge gaps? And what changes must
take place if we hope to feed a growing and increasingly wealthy
world population? Dr. Cassman stresses the need for open-access,
high-quality climate data to accelerate not only farming
technologies, but the knowledge base behind their design and
implementation.


Dr. Cassman is the Emeritus Robert B. Daugherty Professor of
Agronomy at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, who among
numerous other achievements is a Fellow at several leading
research institutes relating to crop science and agronomy.
