Wednesday, May 28th
6:00pm – 8:00pm, Ag & Business Center, Warsaw
CCE Wyoming County will host Drs. Hunter Adams and Jonathan Jaramillo for this opportunity focused on sensor technologies and how they, along with robotics, can assist us in managing agricultural and horticultural production. Both Hunter and Jonathan are lecturers at Cornell University specializing in robotics, sensor technology, and the geographic management of water, nutrients, and livestock.
The session will be divided, Hunter in one room/Jonathan in the other, with adults in one group and kids in the other. Each group will get an hour to interact with the teacher, then you will switch rooms so that both adults and youth are engaged, providing insights into how sensor technologies function, showcasing examples of their applications, and discussing ways we can innovate with these technologies to enhance the efficiency of managing livestock and field or horticultural crops. There will be hands-on learning in each session.
This is the first in a series of workshops that CCE Wyoming County is offering to “get our hands dirty” by learning about and utilizing sensor technologies. That can mean everything from testing and integrating biosensors that monitor the health of individual dairy cows to developing a process for assessing crop fertilizer application via drones and satellites.
Please call the 4-H office to register for this event by Wednesday, May 21st.
