The Food & Agriculture team at Reuters Events is hosting a webinar on Thursday July 16 which will explore the growing impact that technology and data are having across agriculture and food.
Attendees will get insights on why data is now being widely seen as the new fertilizer in food production and supply and hear about the latest advances in precision agriculture technologies.
The expert speakers will talk about the benefits that data collected in the field can deliver both on-farm and through the supply chain and whether data sharing between organizations in the food chain is desirable, or even possible.
They'll provide insights and tangible strategies on how technology and data solutions are driving productivity, efficiency and sustainability in food production, supply and distribution.
The industry leading panel to debate the subject includes:
-Naveen Singla, VP, Data Science, Bayer Crop Science
-Laura Potter, Head, Analytics & Data Sciences, Syngenta Seeds
-Samuel Taylor, Vice President, Senior Farm Inputs Analyst, Rabobank
-Aaron Magenheim, CEO & Founder, AgTech Insight (Moderator)
With the sharing of information and solutions being more
important than ever during these unprecedented times, Reuters Events have made the webinar free to attend.
Pete Carkeek, Head of Food & Agriculture at Reuters Events, states "We're excited to launch this new webinar and bring together some of the industry's leading experts to share their views on the increasing impact that technology and data are already having on agriculture and food - and what they think the future holds."

X-Rail: reliability and resistance to environmental impurities
Rollon's X-Rail linear rails are a reliable solution in environments susceptible to impurities. Equipped with rolling elements with shaped and flat raceways, they are available in several versions: galvanized, nitrided or stainless-steel sheet metal. The latter version ensures total corrosion resistance, which is critical for hostile environments such as those found in vertical farming.
Particularly innovative is the T + U configuration of the X-Rail linear rails, which can compensate for the parallelism errors of mounting surfaces. This simplifies installation and reduces costs.
