Paddock to Profit: Digital Agrifood Summit returns in 2023
Monday, 13 February, 2023
The Digital Agrifood Summit will return to Wagga Wagga on 11–12 October 2023.
The theme, “Paddock to Profit”, will examine how Australia’s agrifood industry can apply data-driven solutions to increase value and drive sustainability across supply chains.
A partnership between Food Agility CRC, Charles Sturt University (CSU) and Charles Sturt’s AgriPark, the summit will feature Australian and international speakers, presentations of research and innovation projects, an exhibition hall of commercially available technology, a tour of the Global Digital Farm and a gala dinner.
“This year will have the same focus on practical innovation, featuring insights, systems and tools that can make a real difference to the ongoing profitability and sustainability of food production,” said Richard Norton, Food Agility CEO. “It’s important that we step out of the capital cities and take the discussion around the future of agriculture and food supply into the regions where our food is grown.”
Renee Leon PSM, Charles Sturt Vice Chancellor, said the Wagga Wagga campus was a suitable location for the event due to its Global Digital Farm and AgriPark.
“We bring together leading scientists with commercial agtech businesses to innovate on a real working farm. We’ve planted the seeds, now the future of farming and food supply is blooming in Wagga,” Leon said.
Presenters, panellists and tours will be announced over the coming months.
