Organic Grower Summit Session to ‘Unlock the Value of AI on the Digital Farming Journey’
The role of artificial intelligence in farming will be the focus of an educational session at the Organic Grower Summit 2023, writes Tom Karst at The Packer.
“Unlocking the Value of AI on the Digital Farming Journey” will explore how AI and machine learning are providing data-driven insights and forecasts for specialty crop markets, according to a news release.
Moderated by Rob Trice, founder of Better Food Ventures, the session will feature panelists Derek Azevedo, executive vice president at Bowles Farming, and Megan Nunes, CEO of Bountiful, the release said.
The 50-minute educational session will explore some of the technologies currently in use and what the future of AI in agriculture may look like.
“I am really looking forward to speaking with Derek and Megan as I’ve known both of them for years and appreciate that they are as comfortable discussing farming as much as technology,” Trice said in the release. “More valuable than that, however, I appreciate their unique ability to see past buzzwords and hype to keep focus on the value exchange technologies like AI must bring to a farming operation. To have produced at least two such cogent thinkers, there must be something special in the small Central Valley town of Gustine they both call home.”
The sixth annual Organic Grower Summit, presented by the Organic Produce Network and Western Growers, aims to provide information vital to organic growers and producers as well as an overview of the opportunities and challenges in the production of organic fresh food, the release said. The summit will be held November 29-30 in Monterey, CA.
