NASA Acres on Earth

Why This Matters

NASA Acres grew out of the recognition that we needed to meet farmers and ranchers on the ground if we wanted to unlock the value of satellite data for agriculture. Our ability to answer important questions starts with hearing them, and continues by contextualizing them with boots on the ground.

This means NASA hitting the road to align our view from space with a view from the land. Below, learn about upcoming farm-relevant events where you can find us, as well as read about where we’ve been before.
