BASF and ADAMA share their challenges and triumphs in integrating the in-person plot tour experience into online platforms. We also caught up with Ag in Motion, Western Canada's Outdoor Farm Expo, to learn how their new online format faired to engage and retain thousands of farmers and exhibitors to their now virtual exhibition site.
