Productivity is top of mind in Canadian agriculture, and we are delighted to welcome Craig Klemmer, Manager, Thought Leadership with Farm Credit Canada (FCC) to EMILI’s 2024 Agriculture Enlightened conference to dig into the topic.
Klemmer will touch on the state of productivity in Canadian agriculture, how we measure productivity, as well as ways that the industry can improve productivity.
Agtech innovation is an essential piece in unlocking productivity. In fact, Canada is already recognized worldwide as a leader in both AI and agricultural innovation thanks to heavy investments into basic research. According to FCC, agricultural productivity growth has slowed in Canada since 2011. Klemmer will share insights into the importance of unlocking the potential of agtech innovation to boost agriculture productivity, which could potentially add as much as $30 billion in net income over the next decade.
2024 marks EMILI’s fifth year hosting its annual Agriculture Enlightened conference in Winnipeg. Join us on November 7, 2024 as we dive into the theme Unlocking Canada’s Innovation and Productivity Paradigm. A full day of keynote and panel discussions will explore diverse perspectives on productivity along the agriculture value chain, innovation taking place across Canada’s smart farm network, and ways to responsibly use data and digital tools on the farm.
