Farmlink and the Rise of Data Science in Agriculture

At a recent Global Ag Investing Conference Dave Gebhardt (Chief Strategy Officer for FarmLink ) spoke about the rise of data science in agriculture. You can read the story and find a link to the podcast here:

In the podcast he discusses the way data science is revolutionizing agriculture, and how we are at a "tipping point where advances in science, IT, technology, and computing power have put a whole new level of opportunities before us."

This sounds a lot like what I have previously discussed in relation to big data and the internet of things: 

"The convergence of biotechnology, genomics, and big data has major implications for economic development as well as environmental sustainability."
