“We know that the many companies and organizations interested in digital agriculture are eager to meet once again with colleagues to focus on the critical mission of digital connectivity,” said AgGateway President & CEO Wendy Smith. “Among the hot topics our members have been pursuing across North America, Latin America and Europe are traceability, interoperability, in-field product identification, laboratory test standardization, precision irrigation, and much more.”
