Data-Driven Decision Making on Your Farm

Thursday, February 22, 2024 · 10 am–noon

VSU Randolph Farm Pavilion, 4415 River Road, Petersburg, VA 23803


A successful farm must capture and use data to make informed, effective decisions. Learn accessible systems for recording critical data and how to tap into the information you’ve carefully gathered to make your farm work better for you. Janet Aardema and Dan Gagnon of Broadfork Farm will share ways to capture data during busy farm work days, make habits out of sound data recording systems, and consistently use that data to make informed decisions.

For more information, contact Grace Summers at 804-712-0093 or gsummers@vsu.edu.
