Teaching Agriculture Technology: Educational Resources for Extension Professionals



Precision agriculture is not a new concept, but as advances in technology make it more widely available—and as farm profits continue to tighten—interest among farmers are increasing.  What technologies are available, how useful are they, what is the return on investment, and how do I manage data are questions the NC-ANR Academy Agriculture Technology team have answered. We have produced learning modules including handouts and PowerPoints, to help extension professionals teach agriculture technology to their stakeholders.

This webinar will provide a brief overview of the developed learning modules, where to access the educational material and how to use them.

The Foundation provides professional development to Cooperative Extension professionals and offers exclusive services to its members. In 2020 and 2021, the Extension Foundation has awarded 85% of its direct funding back to the Cooperative Extension System, 100% of funds are used to support Cooperative Extension initiatives.
