In this episode of Ag Tech Talk, we explore how artificial intelligence and machine learning are helping transform precision agronomy with Dr. Jasmine Neupane, assistant professor of Agricultural Systems Technology at the University of Missouri. Dr. Neupane’s research focuses on integrating digital agriculture technologies, including sensors, remote sensing, and data analytics, to help farmers and ag retailers make more informed, field-specific decisions that improve productivity, profitability, and sustainability.

In this Sustainable Podcast episode by AgriBusiness Global, Ben Cicora, Managing Partner, Commercial, at Frontier Bio Strategy, discusses common pitfalls biologicals companies make when first starting out, how biologicals companies can successfully scale, and more. Thanks for tuning in! 

In this episode of Ag Tech Talk by AgriBusiness Global, three leaders whose companies are working together to advance AI-ready spatial intelligence for agriculture explore how the industry is turning complex farm data into actionable insights. Bailey Stockdale, Founder and CEO of Leaf Agriculture, Ben Pruden, Head of GTM and Marketing at Wherobots, and Rachel Zack, Co-Founder of Felt, discuss how their complementary technologies — spanning data infrastructure, geospatial computing, visualization, and artificial intelligence — are helping transform fragmented datasets into practical insights that support better decision-making across agriculture.

In this Sustainable podcast episode by AgriBusiness Global, Jason McGarrh, VP of Agriculture at Locus FS, delves into recent innovations in the biosurfactants space, how biosurfactants can address challenges like resistance management, and more.

AI has long dominated ag industry headlines—but turning it from concept into day-to-day agronomic practice requires far more than a product launch. In this episode of Ag Tech Talk, FS Agronomy Director Brendan Bachman of GROWMARK breaks down the operational reality behind scaling AI across one of North America’s largest cooperative systems, from building data infrastructure to navigating the complexities of a federated organization. Rather than positioning AI as a disruption, Bachman describes it as a practical layer within existing workflows - one aimed at reducing friction and helping crop specialists make faster, more informed in-season decisions. The discussion highlights the less visible work of adoption: aligning systems, earning grower trust, and driving buy-in across FS locations, while tools like MyFS Agronomy increasingly reshape - not replace - the agronomist’s role in the field.

In this Sustainable podcast episode by AgriBusiness Global, Dr. Brendon Neumann, Andermatt Product Portfolio Director, discusses how biologicals fit into resistance management, how companies can educate their grower customers on this strategy, and more.

In this episode of Ag Tech Talk, we sit down with Andrew Pylypchuk, Global Director of Business Development, Agriculture, at EarthDaily, to explore how next-generation satellite data is reshaping agriculture from the ground up. From sharper, more consistent insights to real-world decision-making at scale, Pylypchuk breaks down what better data means for growers, retailers, and the future of ag — and why the gap between information and action is finally closing.

In this Sustainable Podcast episode by AgriBusiness Global, Ruoyan Li, Director of Strategy & Development at Chengdu Newsun Crop Science Co., Ltd., digs into changes within China to promote sustainable agriculture, roadblocks for Chinese growers' adoption of biological products, how to overcome these challenges, and more.

AI is rapidly rewiring the business of selling crop inputs — and Alan Brady, Vice President of Product and Services at Ever.Ag, says the shift goes far beyond smarter pricing. In this episode of Ag Tech Talk by AgriBusiness Global, Brady explains how embedding AI into ag retail is transforming a fragmented, transactional system into a connected, real-time ecosystem where retailers, suppliers, agronomists, and manufacturers operate in sync. The real advantage isn’t better price prediction; it’s faster, more proactive decision-making that helps businesses navigate volatility, optimize inventory, and protect margins across seasons. Crucially, Brady emphasizes that AI strengthens — not replaces — the industry’s relationship-driven foundation by delivering actionable insights exactly when and where they’re needed most.
