A Conversation About Innovation in Food & Agriculture
As the world’s population expands and its environment continues to change, natural resources will become increasingly scarce. But thanks to modern agricultural technology farmers can grow food more efficiently, in ways that use less water, soil, fertilizer and pesticides. These advancements have also made climate-resilient plants and disease-resistant animals a reality, allowing society to grow more food on less land, and create a more sustainable future for the planet.
