About this event

Step into the future of food production at our Agri-Tech Innovation Showcase! This event will unveil the latest breakthroughs in agri-tech, alongside advanced materials characterisation and analysis methods, and explore the exciting new trends and innovations shaping the agricultural landscape.

Cultivating Tomorrow's Harvest

Discover how cutting-edge agri-tech is revolutionising farming practices. We'll explore areas such as:

  • Precision Agriculture: Harnessing AI, IoT sensors, GPS-enabled equipment, and drones to optimise everything from soil management and irrigation to pest control and nutrient application, leading to increased yields and reduced resource waste.
  • Agricultural Robotics & Automation: Witnessing the next generation of autonomous tractors, robotic harvesters, and drones that are tackling labor shortages, improving efficiency, and performing tasks with unprecedented precision.

Complementing these technological leaps are sophisticated materials characterisation and analysis methods crucial for understanding and optimising agricultural inputs and outputs. Learn about:

  • Advanced Microscopy (SEM, TEM, AFM): Visualising the structure and composition of soil, plant tissues, and agricultural by-products at the micro and nano scales.
  • Spectroscopy (Raman, IR, XRF, ICP-OES): Analysing the chemical composition, nutrient content, and presence of contaminants in soil, water, and produce, enabling targeted interventions and quality control.
  • Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA): Evaluating the thermal stability and degradation properties of new sustainable agricultural materials and biomass.
  • Mechanical Testing: Assessing the strength, durability, and other physical properties of agricultural machinery components and innovative packaging materials derived from agricultural waste.

Beyond the technologies, we'll dive into the innovation and new trends defining the future of agri-tech.

Whether you're a farmer, researcher, technologist, or investor, this showcase offers a unique opportunity to engage with the pioneers and innovations driving agricultural transformation towards a more productive, efficient, and sustainable future.
