The Florida Stakeholder Engagement Program (STEP) engages farmers and other agricultural stakeholders in friendly crop management competitions focused on input use efficiency and profitability. The program creates a shared learning experience for growers, industry representatives, policymakers, researchers, and extension agents. The goal is to improve crop management and increase the adoption of Agricultural Best Management Practices (BMPs) to sustain agriculture and protect water quality.
The Soil Moisture System Network is an advanced initiative designed to monitor and optimize soil moisture levels in agricultural fields. Utilizing cutting-edge sensors and technology, the network provides real-time data to support efficient water usage and sustainable farming practices.The Soil Moisture System Network was developed in response to the growing need for precise, real-time soil moisture data. By leveraging modern sensor technology and data analytics, the network aims to reduce water waste, improve crop yields, and promote sustainable agriculture worldwide.
