\u201cOur collaboration with Ranchbot will bring together research and extension expertise with technology that may open new doors to enhance ranch management decisions and the efficiency of resource use,\u201d said Clay Mathis, Ph.D.<\/a>, professor and head of the Texas A&M Department of Animal Science<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Collaborators expect initial projects to focus on water data and remote sensing in efforts to enhance ranch management decision-making.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis MOU is a prime example of Texas A&M AgriLife linking science and industry to help deliver practical solutions that improve livestock productivity and sustainability,\u201d said Andy Herring, Ph.D.<\/a>, John K. Riggs \u201941 Beef Cattle Professor, associate department head and AgriLife Extension program leader for animal science in the Department of Animal Science.<\/p>\n

A path to developing targeted solutions<\/p>\n

The broad agreement paves the way for the organizations to collaborate on specific initiatives under separate agreements in the future.<\/p>\n

Ranchbot will make selected monitoring technologies available for AgriLife Research and AgriLife Extension activities, including field demonstrations, outreach and student engagement.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to partner with Texas A&M AgriLife, one of the most respected agricultural research and education institutions in the world,\u201d said Andrew Coppin, co-founder and CEO of Ranchbot Monitoring Solutions. \u201cThis MOU builds a bridge between technology innovation and applied research, helping ranchers measure what matters most \u2014 water, livestock and land \u2014 so they can make faster, smarter decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n
