OMAHA, NEB. (RFD NEWS) — As producers work to stay current with rapidly evolving technology in agriculture, many are turning to events designed to share practical, farmer-led insights. One of those opportunities is the annual Farmer2Farmer event hosted by Farmers Business Network (FBN).

FBN Co-Founder Charles Baron joined us on Thursday’s Market Day Report to provide a preview of the seventh edition of the flagship Farmer2Farmer event, set to take place next week in Omaha.

In his conversation with RFD NEWS, Baron discussed what the event is designed to offer growers and why farmers may want to attend. He also touched on how Farmers Business Network is approaching artificial intelligence and how those efforts are impacting farmers today, and shared what attendees can expect on the technology front during the event.

Finally, Baron addressed whether any announcements or new developments would emerge from the Farmer2Farmer gathering and offered guidance for farmers navigating a volatile farm economy.
