Feedstock Management Group Debuts at Tech Hub LIVE
Joyce Hunter of Mission Critical addresses attendees at the Women in Ag Tech meeting during Tech Hub LIVE.
The North American Bioeconomy Data Alliance (NABDA) is a new working group focused on feedstock management that debuted at the recent Tech Hub LIVE event in Des Moines.
Spearheading the group are Joyce Hunter with Mission Critical and Kathleen Glass with AquaSpy, who also led a Roundtable Discussion on the topic at Tech Hub LIVE. NABDA is engaging industry partners help the U.S. and Canada improve data literacy and standardization to optimize the production, processing, and utilization of biological feedstocks.
“It’s looking at all of the feedstock that’s available and how we are going to compensate farmers for what they are growing,” said Hunter. “We’re looking for input from farmers, producers, technology companies…we want all voices included.”
The working group plans to gather input over the rest of this year and present findings at the VISION Conference in January.
Hunter, who served in the Obama administration USDA, also spoke to the Women in Ag Tech group which met for the third time at Tech Hub LIVE about the importance of being involved in public policy and government relations.
