About This hackathon
Join us in Sioux Falls for a groundbreaking, intensive one-day hackathon focused on building climate-resilient agricultural technologies. Participants will form teams to rapidly prototype innovative hardware and software solutions addressing critical challenges faced by South Dakota's farming communities, such as drought monitoring, precision irrigation, pest prediction, and yield optimization under changing climate patterns. We'll leverage sensor data, machine learning, and IoT devices to create tools that empower farmers, fostering a sustainable future for agriculture in the Great Plains region. Experts in climatology, agronomy, and AI will mentor teams throughout the day, culminating in final pitches to a panel of industry leaders and investors.
