Producers are collecting and relying more on ag data collected by farm equipment. Much of this data might be uploaded to the "cloud" and stored with third party. Storing with third parties can lead to questions of who owns farm data? In this episode, Paul is joined by his colleague, Ashley Ellixson, extension legal specialist, and Dr. Terry Griffin, cropping systems economist, Kansas State University.
