The ICT4Ag conference will take place in Kigali, Rwanda, in November, discussing the ICT future of agriculture.
Intending to spark conversation on the ICT influence on value chains, advocacy and policy development, the conference will promote the establishment of a dynamic and enabling environment in agricultural areas.
From November 4 to 8 farming, fisheries and livestock fields are invited to participate in the discovery of new innovations, learning about useful technology and sharing experiences with global stakeholders.
Hosted by the Technical Centre of Agricultural and Rural Co-operation (CTA) and the Rwandan Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI), ICT4Ag offers networking opportunities with both private and public sectors.
Participants include a variety of industry members such as academics, entrepreneurs, developers and operators.
Aimed at the media, a competition about the promotion of industry-based success stories was launched to discuss the enabling environment, gender main streaming through ICT and the promotion of agribusiness through ICT.
