Agriculture websites don’t exactly have the best reputation. Many are run by family members who forget to update them. Some even have that cringe-worthy look straight from the early 2000s.
At the same time, agriculture is hugely important, with $1 trillion contributed annually to the U.S. economy. So, what’s the deal with ag’s outdated digital presence?
