The global agrifood industry is facing complex challenges. Climate change, poverty, urbanization, and an increasing demand for healthier and more sustainable food production are pressuring us to take the roads less traveled and explore new practices, methods and technologies that can help us transition to more sustainable and future-proof business models. Currently, the agrifood industry is unable to produce enough safe, healthy food for a growing world population. Academics, businesses, and local governments all need to play a part in finding new solutions–and we need your help!
