Recent years have seen increasingly challenging and diverse environmental conditions under which plants and animals are being managed.
From breeding technologies to better forecasting, building resilience to more extreme environments in crops, flocks and herds are helping open new markets and protect supply chains.
Join us to discover innovative strategies for thriving in the face of a changing climate.
How is farming and the agri-food supply chain going to be impacted by a warming world?
With 2024 confirmed as the hottest year on record - and January 2025 continuing the trend - we’re looking at the role of innovation in helping the industry respond to this most pressing of challenges.
From breeding technologies to new farming practices and improved forecasting, building resilience to more extreme circumstances in crops, flocks and herds is key to helping open new markets and protect supply chains.
Agriculture is one of the industries most likely to be impacted by a changing climate – as animals and plants struggle in the extremes of weather, amid the expectation of continued supply and feeding consumer demands.
Join us to hear from leading experts – including researchers, farmers, agronomists and breeders – about their innovations designed to support climate change adaptation and mitigation.
We’ll also be hearing from the latest research – in a farmer-chaired “fireside chat” format – to find out what solutions are in development.
Key topics we’ll be discussing include:
- Predicting the unpredictable – is weather forecasting as good as it’s going to get?
- Pests and diseases – on the move
- Farming practices to help reduce your risks
- Modelling the future – new crops in new places?
