A leader with the University of Nebraska says he’s still optimistic about USDA’s precision ag research facility despite disagreements over its funding.
Mike Boehm, vice chancellor with the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources, tells Brownfield ground could be broken on UNL’s campus in summer of 2024. “This center will be a pivotal tool in American agriculture’s arsenal to maintain our cutting edge forward leaning #1 spot in the world at producing sustainably produced food, fuel, feed, and fiber that we all need.”
Boehm says there’s been two significant funding proposals for The Center for Resilient and Regenerative Precision Agriculture from President Biden and the House Ag Subcommittee on Appropriations.
