WILLOUGHBY, Ohio , June 28, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Meister Media Worldwide, Inc. (MMW) announces the launch of the Global Ag Tech Initiative℠ to lead a new generation of worldwide agriculture forward to sustainably produce safe and abundant food to feed the world.
The Initiative started from the explosion of new platforms, tools and technologies enabling integrated connectivity from farm to retail expanding globally, deriving from the in-field precision technologies of the 90s. Precision agriculture created greater efficiency of crop input for higher yields, but since that time, ag tech is broadening its scope to support growers.
"The MMW CropLife Media Group® and its PrecisionAg® brands have been at the forefront leading the precision agriculture industry with an expanding portfolio of new products and services enabling U.S. crop input providers to bring these new capabilities alive on the farm," says Eric Davis, Managing Director of the Global Ag Tech Initiative. "Building on this foundation the Global Ag Tech Initiative will leverage all MMW domestic and international markets and diverse platforms to build out new global and region-specific programs to advance the new generation of digital data-driven agriculture around the world."
As technology companies strive to create interoperable, data-driven agricultural systems, the scope of reach has broadened, addressing urgent global issues such as food security, climate change, and water scarcity.
However, the advancements, the research, and various products often exist in silos. As autonomous equipment, expansion of broadband access, and product portability are reshaping food production systems to better utilize scarce resources and leave a lighter environmental footprint, it's a crucial time to create community, communication, and education to forward the advancement of this technology.
"Through a portfolio of events and informative products, the Global Ag Tech Initiative provides opportunities to connect the industry with multiple touchpoints ranging from market intelligence to research to thought leadership. This portfolio, in collaboration with agricultural and non-endemic stakeholders, encourages sharing of information, networking, and global opportunities to forward the adoption and realize the promise of ag tech globally," says Renee Targos, Program Director of the Global Ag Tech Initiative. "The ag tech industry needs advocates, community, and connections to expand the vision and acceptance for how technology can improve agricultural practices to better feed the world."
"The transformation of global agriculture continues at a rapid pace," says Davis. "Technology is not only driving efficient food production, but also represents the foundation for sustainability, transparency, and a forum for more stakeholders to be connected."
