Most AI use in agriculture today stops at the surface — asking questions of a chatbot, generating a report, running a quick analysis. That’s a starting point, not a strategy.
In the first session of CAST’s new three-part webinar series, AI at Work in Agriculture, Dan Maycock — co-founder and chief technology officer of Dataplai and visiting researcher at North Carolina State University — examines what it actually takes to move past initial experimentation and build AI-powered solutions that deliver measurable operational value.
Topics include data maturity and how to assess where your organization stands, the implementation challenges most commonly encountered by agricultural organizations and key considerations for scoping AI initiatives that generate real-world results.
The session is free and open to all. It is the first of three in the AI at Work in Agriculture series, which runs June 25, July 2 and July 9. Attendees who complete all three sessions through CAST’s online platform earn a certificate of completion.
