If you, like us, think that these kinds of community activity are needed, we warmly invite you to get involved in AgML. So far, we've created benchmark datasets, organised a workshop, Kaggle competition and there's so much more we'd like to do - join our mailing list: mail.agml.org/mailman/list...

🌱New paper Alert! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Also had a great time meeting the AgML people at CIMMYT for #AgMIP10! Great team that will hopefully expand after meeting so many people and different problems at the event for @agmip.bsky.social .

Presented my work at the #AgMIP10 meeting this month at CIMMYT El Batán. Grateful to see the AgML team again, enjoy the conversations, and meet the people behind the models. Lots to process, but it’s always good to be reminded that there’s a community deeply invested in agriculture and climate.
