F3 Innovate is beginning their Data Challenge #1!

Frost events remain one of the most damaging weather risks for California agriculture threatening almonds, citrus, and other crops during critical bloom periods.

In this challenge, you’ll train machine learning models on real California weather data to predict frost conditions 6, 12, and 24 hours ahead, helping growers act before damage occurs.

Awards for Top Forecasting Model, Best Visualization, and Most Innovative Approach. Present you results to researchers and industry partners in agtech.

Who can participate? Students, researchers, and professionals with an institutional email, anyone who wants to mentor or judge, and team and individuals.

Kickoff webinar is on November 10!
