I have in-laws who work for rural phone co-ops in northern Iowa. Back in the late 1990's they were laying fiber-optic everywhere because of the bandwidth farmers were willing to pay for...particularly the hog farms which were largely automated.

And that's nothing compared to the level of genetic technology and associated startups involved with agriculture.

I'm sorry but the idea that we are at Agriculture 2.0 only suggests a lack of familiarity with the contemporary agriculture industries and a lack of historical perspective.
