Olds College of Agriculture & Technology and Agricultural Financial Services Corporation (AFSC) have renewed a memorandum of understanding aimed at advancing smart agriculture research. The MOU extends the partnership for another five years and sets out a framework for pursuing projects on drone use for hail damage estimation, field trials on the Olds College Smart Farm, and business risk management analytics and technologies. It also outlines learning opportunities for students. “AFSC and Olds College are natural allies – AFSC supports Alberta agriculture through insurance and lending, while Olds College advances agriculture through education and research,” said Olds VP External Relations & Research Todd Ormann.
