FarmBot for Ag cirricula in Higher Ed

I am thinking about adding FarmBot as a way to meld VoTech training with Agricultural studies. My thoughts are to have students create a design for an automated greenhouse in which students build and maintain a working business plan using FarmBot automation for an agricultural production facility. The circula would include use and programming of computer systems, biology and cultivation, and business management. Any ideas welcome -

Thanks for the url’s. We have a working research program now. One semester in and we are developing more refined course work. Getting the tech department and the bio department working together has had some interesting challenges. I’ll post more as we move forward.
