Day two for the Desert Difference AG Tech Conference

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - The innovation continued Friday for day two of the Desert Difference AG Tech Conference.

The second day is a time for multiple people, from growers to up-and-coming entrepreneurs, to tell their story and talk about their businesses.

The goal is to make Yuma a proving ground for agriculture technology.

At the two-day conference, people were able to display AG-related cutting-edge technology.

Xiong Chang, the CEO and co-founder for Tensorfield AG, was able to bring one of their machines.

Change says the event provides plenty of opportunities to learn and grow.

"Just really engaged with understanding exactly what we're trying to build, getting guidance from growers who have been very open with us about their challenges, and there's nothing more fun for a group of engineers to have a clear direction set by customers," says Chang.

Raul Heredia, the CTO for Motive Companies, says younger entreprenuers should check out the conference in Yuma.

He says it provides some insight into the landscape of up to date agircultural technologies, and that Yuma is a good starting point.

"In understanding the importance of connecting with the community and providing products that will deliver technology that is going to make a difference in the future," Heredia said.

As they say at the conference, it is more than a trend, it's a movement that looks to reshape the agriculture industry.
