About Howard Dahl

Howard Dahl is the chairman and founder of FarmQA, Inc. FarmQA builds QA Advisor, which helps agronomists and agribusinesses manage field data and make recommendations to their growers. Its QA Farmer product gives farmers a way to stay connected to their agronomist. Dahl founded the company in December 2015.

In a 2024 post on the company's site, Dahl wrote that agriculture was one of the least digitized industries about a decade earlier. He wrote that this gap led to the creation of FarmQA. He also wrote that he helped develop the first air seeder with variable-rate fertilizer placement in 1994. He and Brian Dahl incorporated Concord, Inc., a maker of air drills for planting small grains and oil seed crops.
