Banks\, insurance providers and end-users are increasing their scrutiny of our farming and business practices\, which has the potential to impact our capacity to operate. \nSharing data with end-users is one way that farmers can demonstrate their sustainability credentials and gain access to markets. But what exactly are the types of data needed\, and how will farmers be required to collect and report on this in the future? \nTo address this\, speakers will answer key questions over the course of the Expo\, like: \n\nHow can farmers proactively and efficiently approach data collection to meet supply chain requirements?\nAre there technologies that can help make data collection and reporting easier?\nWhat is the role of AI and can we trust it?\nWhat about privacy?\nCan this data be used to help improve our on-farm decision making and help us become more sustainable in the long-term?\n\nTickets are now available! Riverine Plains Members receive a 50% discount on tickets – check your emails for your discount code.
