Innovation for Resilient Agriculture
Agricultural International Conference
19th - 21st OCTOBER 2022 THE EMPRESS CONVENTION CENTRE
Introduction
Introduction to Innovation for Resilient Agriculture
Agriculture across the world is facing challenges. Global climate changes affect productivities and predictability, creating prolonged drought, flood, loss of ecological balance, and temperature shift that made food production and forest conservation more difficult. The challenges are aggravated further with pandemic, which greatly affect logistics and mobility of agricultural goods, people, and labors. This may cause hunger and poverty across nations.
Innovation in agriculture can mitigate the negative impact of these challenges. Reducing labors, facilitating trades, and sharing real-time information can reduce the risks of pandemic, while increasing the effectiveness in production and food distribution can make food more accessible to more people.
Faculty of Agriculture, Chiang Mai University, sees the importance of resilient innovation in agriculture. Our vision, smart agriculture for better life, aims to use agricultural innovation to improve well-being of people across the globes via research collaboration and information sharing.
Thus, this conference aims to exchange knowledge, share ideas, and discuss possibilities towards resilient future via agricultural information. We invite all scholars, students, and those who are interested, to join us in INNOVATION FOR RESILIENT AGRICULTURE.
