Climate Smart Agriculture: Data Management & Information Systems

Data management and analysis are key in allowing the agriculture sector to facilitate change when transitioning to a low carbon economy and meeting net zero targets. Using farm level data to support decisions will ensure farmers and farm workers are positioned to make decisions to optimize yields and outputs for their specific situation. Digitization of agriculture data is a key factor for the sector going forward and how that data is used and interpreted will affect productivity, competitiveness, profitability, traceability and application of inputs. This microcredential will prepare learners to implement a system to collect, analyze, and report information using data that leads to a reduction of a farm operation’s carbon footprint. This training will assist farmers, farm workers, and farm service providers to transition towards meeting carbon emission targets and contribute to a net zero clean economy.
