While I believe there are farmers among the groups, this seems to primarily be pushed by NYC-based climate politics law firms, which I didn't know was a thing until I read this article. There aren't a bunch of farmers in Iowa who are upset about this, at least as far as the article mentions
There's a pretty large network of third-generation-never-had-to-work "philantropy" people that fund these sorts of pet left wing projects. See Tides foundation etc.
The article doesn’t mention it, so I will ask: what is the data which farmers need, and how do they use that data? I could imagine some info about rainfall, heat and sun being useful but I am curious how the typical farmer applies this information.
