Wednesday Webinar: The Future of ICT4Ag

 

Hi, first-time post to the Trusted Ohana content group. Hope I'm doing this right!

 

TaroWorks will host a webinar this Wednesday at 10:30am EDT previewing the upcoming ICT4Ag Conference in Washington DC later this month.

 

In addition to other topics, I'll be talking about the importance of "Farmer Relationship Management" based on our experience of bringing SalesForce to the field for 16 projects in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

For years, the big need in mobile agriculture was “mobile data collection,” or digitizing paper forms. That need has essentially been filled with countless mobile data collection tools that each have a specialty. Now, as organizations get more sophisticated and need to coordinate with more stakeholders in different ways, we’re seeing more advanced requirements for what an ICT system needs to do. What does Mobile Ag 2.0 look like? What’s the role of big data? How do you make systems more farmer-centric?

 

We’re excited to assemble this panel of experts in the tech and ag industry to discuss these trends and more:
