Farm communities are realizing benefits and challenges as new technologies reshape agriculture. How can the farming practices adapt to this inescapable digital era? How do we provide information necessary to explore specific impacts, opportunities AI brings, especially to small communities?
Small farms are now gearing towards automated machinery, sensors and drones for real time data on soil conditions, weather and crop health. Can we supplement our wisdom from general knowledge and manual observations with data driven decision making? The blend of AI insights and practical experience can create new efficiencies in sustainable farming while addressing the changing labor dynamics and community roles.
**Solution and approach** A myriad of tools have been developed to assist in the decision-making process, most of which are available to download and use, to test a variety of scenarios. Talks of AI solutions abound and are never clear. The questions are: Which of these follow a sustainable model for the farmer?
What is easily available and at what cost? How can farmers integrate complex systems into daily routines? Do farmers need cooperatives to afford the services?
What about sustainability monitoring tools? Does AI present paths to greater income and financial security through predictive analytics? Which online decision-making tool helps producers plan ahead for the changing growing season?
How do we benefit from image recognition detection on plant stress? Does the Ag agent have all the answers? The Ag Agent surely needs training to be able to help.
### Performance targets from proposal: A total of fifty (50) agricultural service providers in Delaware and parts of Maryland, will be reached out to via email to be informed about professional development plans.
A total of sixty (60) Delaware Ag service providers will attend organized face to face and virtual sessions of training that will tackle relevant topics alluded to for information on available decision-making tools and innovation pertaining to recommended resilient farm activities with a focus on safe practical efficient and ethical AI systems in Ag.
Of the 60 Ag providers; 35 will organize and/or participate in follow up workshops to share the knowledge acquired. These educators will be expected to deliver extension programming that will lead to an increase in knowledge in AI in Ag to 80 growers before the conclusion of the project. The demonstration plots at SORC and documented virtual tour realities embedded on the website will serve as outreach tools.
Over 450 viewers will be able to interact with media postings and acquire knowledge about tools that are available to a farmer for decision making expounding their knowledge of AI and Ag. A yearly estimated three hundred (300) visitors to SORC will gain knowledge of the workings of AI.

Economics of AI Fellowship is sponsored by Stripe. The fellowship supports foundational academic research in the economics of AI, an area currently understudied despite rapid technical progress in artificial intelligence. Fellows receive a baseline grant, opportunities to attend conferences with leading economists and technologists, and potential access to unique data via Stripe and its customers.
The UKRI Policy Fellowships 2025, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, offer 18-month placements for academics to co-design research with UK government and What Works Network host organizations. Awards range from £180,000 to £280,000 and support three fellowship tracks: core policy fellows, Natural Hazards and Resilience policy fellows, and What Works Innovation fellows. Applicants must hold a PhD or equivalent research experience, be based at a UKRI-eligible UK organization, and possess relevant subject matter or methodological expertise. Government-hosted positions target early to mid-career academics, while What Works fellowships welcome all career stages. Fellows work directly with policymakers to bridge academic research and policy development on pressing national and global challenges. The application deadline is July 15, 2025.
Western SARE's 2026 Research & Education grant cycle uses a pre-proposal gate before full proposals are invited. The June 15 deadline determines who gets to compete for up to $350,000 over three years — and the pre-proposal is graded on different criteria than the full proposal. Here's what that asymmetry means for sustainable-ag teams across thirteen Western states and four territories.
Read articleMissouri's Department of Agriculture has reopened its Urban Agriculture Cost-Share Grant — reimbursing 75% of project costs up to $10,000, with applications due September 15, 2026. A companion Food Insecure Cost-Share Grant closes August 26. Here is how these small, fast state grants work, who qualifies under the Census 'urban area' definition, and how to layer them with the federal USDA Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production program for a durable urban-farming funding strategy.
Read articleNSF's Faculty Early Career Development Program — the CAREER award — has a July 22, 2026 deadline, a $400,000 floor, a five-year runway, and roughly 500 awards a year across every directorate. It is the most prestigious grant a pre-tenure scientist can win, and the one most often lost on the integration requirement rather than the research. Here is what the award actually funds, who is eligible, and how to build a proposal that treats research and education as one program instead of two.
