Data standardization: Transforming decision-making in Ag
The need for data standardization in modern agriculture and its potentially transformative effects for the global ag industry is the topic of an upcoming Tech Talk that’s set to be delivered by Samantha Murray, Proagrica’s Director of Global Data Management, at TECHHUB LIVE 2023.
There’s a need for standardized structured data throughout the ag industry. From Precision Agriculture to helping growers comply with federal and state regulations, customers need accurate, up-to-date crop input data.
However, customers often struggle with a lack of data standardization. They have to wade through vast amounts of data from diverse sources which may be inaccurate or out of date, and this can present significant challenges. This is where data standardization plays a vital role.
The Tech Talk will look at some of the challenges customers face when it comes to finding the data they need, as well as real-life examples of how data standardization has transformed businesses and improved decision-making processes.
One area of focus will be Proagrica’s CDMS crop input database, which gives customers access to the most comprehensive single source of up-to-date product information. Having access to accurate data centralised hub is paramount in an agricultural industry where there is an ever-increasing requirement for traceability and sustainability at every level of crop production. Updated daily by Proagrica, and quality checked, customers can use the database with confidence.
The talk will explore how access to a standardized data set plays a vital role in transforming businesses and supports the real-time decision-making that enables standardization, analysis, compliance, product stewardship, and interoperability.
This is a must-see talk for any grower or agricultural service provider who wants to find out more about the importance of standardized data and the latest solutions that can be used to overcome significant data challenges.
