Greentech FTS virtual round table talks - How to tackle HR challenges in the industry?
2021-06-17 14:00 - 15:30 UTC
Join us on Thursday the 17th of June during our third GreenTech webinar: FTS virtual round table talks HR in CEA. Agriculture, as a whole, has a wide range of labour and HR challenges. How can CEA help the horticulture industry overcome these problems? Tune in to find out!

In conventional field agriculture, there are the challenges presented by over-reliance on seasonal migrant labour doing hazardous unsustainable jobs. CEA offers attractive STEM-based professional profiles to alleviate these issues, by enabling year-round production and via automation and other process improvements lifting the professional profiles. Talent shortage also constitutes a significant bottleneck for CEA too, insofar as the industry faces a shortage of candidates with the appropriate mix of skills and training.
This session is made possible by FarmTech and is moderated by Ponic Jobs.
During these round table talks expect to learn more about:

CEA industry to address within-industry challenges
CEA industry to strategise on wider agricultural impact
Engagement with wider agriculture

Want to know more? Find out in these round table talks. Even if you can’t join live, register now and you’ll be able to watch the recording of the webinar at your convenience.

Global Food Security & Sustainability Summit 2021
2021-09-17 09:00 - 16:30 (Asia/Tokyo)
The Global food system is at a critical stage and made worse by the COVID-19 pandemic. As many as 265 million people are threatened by famine, up 50% from last year. 700 million suffer from chronic hunger and 2 billion more from malnutrition, with obesity and associated diet-related diseases increasing in all regions. During the height of the pandemic with lockdowns, we have witnessed the collapse of the global food system with reports of food producers resorting to dumping their produce. The food crisis faced during the pandemic is a wake-up call for both developed and developing countries of the looming crisis facing the world when the next major crisis hits us, be it climate change, pandemics etc.
Although the world has progressed significantly in terms of technological advancements in food production, food is not distributed in an equitable manner to regions, countries, households and individuals. Government policies, availability of investments and technological know-how including access to food supplies are key issues to meet the urgent food needs of the world’s growing population. New and innovative farming technologies such as high-tech agriculture and aquaculture methods that produce more yields inland and urban conditions offer hope for the future.
The Global Food Security & Sustainability Virtual Summit 2021 held on 17 September 2021, would be one of the most important events ever held to address the critical issues of food security from the local to global level, and from an interdisciplinary and systemic food systems perspective. The summit will invite multi-stakeholders from governmental organisations, private sector businesses and NGOs to address the current disruptions and possible solutions on the world food supply chain. Discussions will also include issues surrounding sustainability issues and how societies and businesses can design more sustainable solutions in their entire food chain to minimize impact to the environment and reduce food waste.

Wageningen University & Research and Delphy - Vertical Farm Facilities Opening
2021-10-01 09:00 - 15:00 UTC
Vertical Farming – ‘Beyond the Hype’
Opening of the Vertical Farm facilities built by Wageningen University & Research and Delphy in combination with the Vertical Farming Conference
There are great opportunities for Vertical Farming as part of the global food system of the future. The potential yields are high, the quality can be optimally controlled, and many resources are used more sustainably than in more traditional types of agriculture and horticulture. Above all, Vertical Farms can be built anywhere: all over the world and close to the consumer, which translates into fewer food miles and less food waste. However, there are still some challenges facing this still relatively new agricultural practice. Only little scientific research has been carried out at this point in time that captures the actual value of Vertical Farming in hard figures. This is partly because nothing has been standardised yet: no two Vertical Farms are the same. Therefore, there are still numerous opportunities for optimisation.
Wageningen University & Research, BU Horticulture & Flower Bulbs and Delphy Improvement Centre, both established at the Horti Science Park in Bleiswijk, recently finished building their Vertical Farm facilities. Research projects are currently in full swing here. They are primarily carried out as part of the ‘Vertical Farming Field Lab’, a project co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund and the Province of Zuid-Holland.
The official opening of WUR and Delphy’s Vertical Farm facilities will be held on Friday 1 October as part of the ‘Horti Science Park Event Weeks’. At the opening ceremony, which will take place that morning on Violierenweg 1-3 in Bleiswijk, the importance of Vertical Farming for the region – and the entire world – and the opportunities offered by the facilities led by WUR and Delphy will be discussed. The first research results will also be announced. Later on that day, the international ‘Vertical Farming Conference’ will be held. During this afternoon symposium, experts will discuss various aspects of Vertical Farming, examining such topics as technology, sustainability and cultivation climate. Some of the speakers will be presenting their contribution to the conference at the Horti Science Park.
The morning and afternoon programmes can be attended both in person (exclusively for invitees and subject to registration) and online. Please note that the number of seats at the science park is very limited. This is partly on account of restrictions imposed due to the pandemic. You can find the procedure for registration and participation here.

ONLINE Vertical Farming Conference
2021-10-01 12:00 - 16:00 UTC
The continually-growing world populations, the global trend to urbanisation, climate change and pressure on natural resources are key drivers for policies on global food security. Vertical farming is an innovative methodology for vertical cultivation of agricultural products in a small footprint, which can also realize true zero-mile city food supply.
Vertical farms can be built in new or existing buildings and provide significant benefits in environmental sustainability and human health, minimizing the need for water and nutrients, and eliminating pesticides and fungicides, which are no longer needed. Vertical farming and urban agriculture, if designed and implemented appropriately, could offer sustainable and innovative solutions for improving food security in a small footprint.
Focus topics of the conference are:

Available technologies – LED lighting, sensors, AI
Plant condition issues like: CO2, Nutrients, Irrigation, Climate, Lighting
Food safety / HACCP
Robotics
Improved resource-use efficiency
Sustainability issues
Smart Cities / Architecture / Urban Design
From traditional farmer to vertical farmer

ONLINE Smart Farming Conference
2021-10-01 12:00 - 16:00 UTC

It has now reached a point where it is not only possible to collect vast quantities of data but also to control different pieces of equipment or monitor individual animals, the Internet of Things. A growing number of farmers are starting to adopt digital technology and data-driven innovations.

What new business models will be successful? Will new players disrupt the traditional farming landscape? How to deal with changes (from traditional farmer to smart farmer)? How to identify and develop innovative methods for sustainable food production?
Focus topics of the conference are:

Available technologies for Farming 4.0 – drones, sensors, Internet of Things, Multi-spectral imaging, Robotics, Big Data, AI and more
Precision agriculture
Plant and crop science for improved resource-use
Investment in R&D
New business models
Cross disciplinary themes
