Dokoohaki, H	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/18/22-05/04/22 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Digital Agriculture Section Info: Digital agriculture is concerned with the use of digital technologies for understanding underlying processes and solving agricultural issues. The ultimate goal of the Digital Agriculture course is to help students develop an understanding around three main components in digital agriculture including: 1) Statistical modeling and machine learning 2) Process-based crop modeling and 3) Remote sensing, where they all revolve around crop physiology and production. In this course students will start by learning the fundamentals of crop physiology and familiarizing themselves with the current major issues around crop production in large. Then, students will learn about three powerful tools including statistical modeling, process-based modeling and remote sensing to addresses those challenges.
