OPEN FARMS is the third episode of GODAN's documentary web series that meets individuals around the world who are on the frontline of how technology and data are reshaping agriculture to combat food insecurity and improve global nutrition.
Today, nearly 800 million people suffer from hunger and malnutrition around the world. For the first time in human history, we have the knowledge and the tools to put an end to it. Open data makes that knowledge available to everyone.
Episode 3: OPEN FARMS
This episode follows the story of how modern technology and open data are transforming Tuckaway Farm in Lee, New Hampshire, USA.
Dorn Cox, a farmer on the 250-acre family-run farm, says that every modern farm should be a research farm, and he is incorporating open data technologies into his work.
His work has resulted in an open-source Drupal farm management solution called FarmOS.
