About

Todd Janzen is a leading voice at the intersection of law, technology, and agriculture, with a primary research focus on the legal and policy implications of precision agriculture, data ownership, and emerging ag-tech. His most-cited work, “Ground and Aerial Robots for Agricultural Production: Opportunities and Challenges” (2020, 14 citations), co-authored with experts in the field, provides a critical framework for understanding how robotics and automation are reshaping farming—not just from an engineering perspective, but from the legal and regulatory challenges they introduce. Janzen’s major contribution lies in translating complex technological shifts into actionable legal guidance for farmers, agribusinesses, and policymakers. He is widely recognized for his expertise on agricultural data rights, a topic he has explored extensively through his blog, “Janzen Ag Law,” and in numerous legal publications. His work has helped define the conversation around who owns the data generated by modern farm equipment, making him a sought-after speaker and consultant. With a career dedicated to bridging the gap between innovation and regulation, Janzen’s impact is felt across the agricultural community, where his insights are essential for navigating the digital transformation of food production.
