U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and Sen. Reverend Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) today reintroduced the Promoting Precision Agriculture Act, legislation that would facilitate the further adoption of precision agriculture technologies for farmers and ranchers.

South Dakota State University is the first land-grant university to offer a precision agriculture major, a precision agriculture minor and an engineering for precision agriculture minor, as part of their curriculum. Corteva Agriscience is donating $600,000 to help expand facilities for student learning and engagement with precision ag tools.

The Raven Precision Agriculture Center will bring agronomy, engineering and computer science disciplines under one roof, where students and faculty can collaborate, conduct research and innovate.

Raven Industries announced today that it is awarding South Dakota State University (SDSU) with a historic gift of $5 million for the establishment of its Precision Agriculture Facility within the College of Agriculture and Biological Sciences on its main campus in Brookings, S.D.

The South Dakota Board of Regents has approved a request from South Dakota State University to develop plans for an undergraduate ag degree that officials say isn't offered anywhere else in the country.

Raven Industries Inc., in association with the South Dakota State University (SDSU), plans to establish a research development center within The Research Park in the university premises, in Brookings, S.D., to develop new precision agriculture technologies.

Raven Industries, South Dakota State University and the Research Park at South Dakota State University have announced the formation of a new partnership focused on research and development coupled with student experiential learning. The collaboration among the three entities, which will concentrate on precision agriculture and associated workforce development, will be located in the Research Park at SDSU.
