From worthless sales pitches to incompatible datasets—discover why farmers can’t unlock their data’s value and who really owns it.
Byrum’s team includes biologists, agronomists, mathematicians – even an experimental physicist. Once you present a problem in a way everyone can work on, he says, the broad-based approach to solving it reaps rewards. That, in turn, attracts top talent.
