News from YAGRO and information, insight and commentary on agtech and farming.
In 2015 we set out to build a company that would change the way data and information was used in farming; that would genuinely add value to a farmer’s business; and that would help the next generation of farmers apply their skills and manage their farms with full confidence. Today we are excited to share that we are supercharging our ability to deliver that vision.
