American Farming Communities: Planting During a Pandemic
How are America’s farmers adapting to the Covid-19 pandemic? Data and technology already play key roles in modern farming operations and with the effects on the supply chain, a data-driven future is more important than ever before.
“Just as Covid-19 began to spread in the U.S., farmers across America’s rural communities were beginning to plant crops. We highlighted some of the challenges that farmers are up against during Covid-19 in our recent white paper. Field labor shortages, food nationalism and crop trade restrictions, excess food waste from a collapse in food service, and concerns about receiving agriculture inputs on time, have created an even more difficult environment for farmers to be successful.”
