Ag Data Transparent: Building a common language for agtech companies and farmers

As the use of digital agriculture technology increases, so does the importance of strengthening communications between farmers and agtech companies. This is the aim of Ag Data Transparent (ADT).  While presenting at EMILI’s 2024 Agriculture Enlightened Conference in November 2024, Todd Janzen, attorney and ADT administrator, shared the origins of ADT and the role the non-profit group plays in strengthening the agriculture data ecosystem in Canada and the USA. Janzen’s presentation was followed by a panel discussion that included Canadian Federation of Agriculture (CFA) Board Member and Keystone Ag Producers President Jill Verway, GrainFox Chief Growth Officer Liz Pham, and ADT Board Member and EMILI Director of Agri-Food Data Dan Lussier.  To qualify for Ag Data Transparent certification, agtech companies answer 11 standard questions and submit copies of the contracts and data use agreements they ask farmers to sign.

Considering that a bull’s contribution to the genetic makeup of a beef herd in a single breeding season is more than a cow may contribute in her lifetime–a bull may sire 25 or more calves per year while the average cow produces fewer than 10 calves–selecting genetically superior bulls is the quickest way to improve herd genetics. But how do you determine which bull is right for your operation? Match Your Breeding Program to Your Operational Goals The first step in identifying which bull or bulls are right for your farm is to clearly establish both the long- and short-term goals of your operation. These goals, along with the management practices and infrastructure that fit those goals, will determine the breeding programs and genetics required to achieve them. There are a variety of breeding programs available, and effective si
