at various agronomically relevant scales. We accomplish this by introducing AI-driven digital twins that fuse diverse data with siloed domain knowledge. We will deploy these twins across ag applications that directly impact the USDA Science Blueprint involving crop improvement and production. These applications require foundational advances in AI. Our strong social science focus will ensure the adoption of AI in ag. We will democratize access to AI tools to the broader research and Ag community. We have signature education activities that will build an AI-aware workforce. We also have signature activities to provide AI training to native American communities and ensure increased participation of women in AI.
