How Research is Changing the Way We Farm 🚜 | EP10 - Lewis Baarda

Today we’re joined by Lewis Baarda, Field Tested Research Manager at Farming Smarter, a southern Alberta agricultural research hub helping crop producers make informed decisions around inputs, technology, and management practices. Lewis leads the Field Tested research program, focusing on on-farm trials, irrigation, and specialty crops. With a Master’s degree in geography from the University of Lethbridge and extensive experience in spatial analysis and multivariate statistics, Lewis applies data-driven insights to real-world farming challenges. From variable rate technology to soil sensors, GIS, and remote sensing, he helps producers translate complex data into practical solutions for their operations. In this episode, we dive into the role of field-scale research in modern agriculture, how data and technology can transform decision-making on the farm, and the importance of collaboration between researchers and producers to drive sustainable, resilient farming practices.
