A two-day conference with expert speakers attending will give visitors to FutureAg plenty of opportunity to learn about the industry’s future
The inaugural FutureAg expo will feature talks from many of the industry’s brightest minds.
In addition to the expo itself, an Expert Stage will feature three full days of sessions, with speakers covering a range of key topics, including agricultural technologies, robotics and artificial intelligence, as well as sustainable farming practices, data and skilled workforces.
Case studies and insights on products and developments will give visitors an additional channel from which to learn about the industry’s future.
Some of Australia’s leading agricultural researchers will speak from the Expert Stage at the event, including Associate Professor Chao Chen, a leading agricultural robotics researcher from Monash University.
Charles Sturt University’s Jon Medway will present on the future of precision agriculture and automation, while attendees will also hear from Australian Agritech Association president Tim Neale.
“Our Expert Stage will feature some of Australia’s leading agricultural innovators and experts, as well as university researchers, giving those who attend a unique and exclusive opportunity to hear from them first-hand and a taste of what the FutureAg two-day conference has to offer,” Hannover Fairs commercial director Mike Nissen says.
The Expert Stage will run for all three days of the FutureAg expo, which takes place between April 17 and 19.
A ticketed two-day conference will also be held during FutureAg Expo 2024 and will explore seven key pillars: sustainable agriculture, energy, innovative machinery, supply chains, biosecurity, agtech and smart farms, and the human connection.
“The free Expert Stage and paid conference program will delve into specific agricultural domains and topics and offer practical advice and guidance for farmers and producers,” Nissen says.
FutureAg is powered by leading German event Agritechnica and will be held at the Melbourne Showgrounds from April 17-19, 2024.
