Robots, Wine and Food, a seminar on Precision Agriculture at Cornell and beyond

We have a super exciting line up of prominent speakers spanning researchers, industry, farmers, and more – the class also includes field trips to the Dyce lab for pollinator research, the Cornell Vineyards, and the Cornell Dairy Plant.

The first lecture will be in Stocking Hall 201. Afterwards, lectures will alternate between Stocking Hall 201 and Rhodes Hall 310.
