Future of Agriculture, Western Australia (2019-2020)
Project Overview
The Australian Institute of Agriculture is a professional association of Agricultural Scientists and other industry leaders. Future iQ partnered with the Institute to host a Think-Tank in Perth Western Australia, as part of the August 2019 annual conference. This Think-Tank explored the future of agriculture and agricultural industries looking out to 2035. This session was called Ag Futures 2035, and was a two-day deep dive to explore questions including:
- What might the sector look like in 2035 if we dare to "think the unthinkable"?
- How will production, processing, value-adding and marketing be integrated across the State and internationally?
- Will ecosystem services be a valued agricultural 'output'?
- How will farmed food compete with the factory kind?
- What will be the balance of small and large enterprises?
- How much can agribusiness grow the Western Australian Economy?
- How can you position yourself to be part of this bright and exciting future and what human and technological capabilities must your organisation develop to maximise success in a rapidly changing world?
