#Agriculture

Elders CEO Mark Allison addressed evoke^AG. 2020 – just a few short weeks before the world went into lockdown – to talk farming trends and Australian agriculture’s target of building a $100 billion industry by 2030. As the Platnium Partner for evoke^AG. 2023 Mark reflects on the past two and a half years, and why he’s excited for evoke^AG. 2023 and the future of Australian agriculture.

We’re excited to launch our first-ever Humans of Agriculture x evoke^AG. podcast collaboration series with Oli Le Lievre.

Five young leaders in agriculture give us their perspective on the future of agriculture and the opportunities that lie ahead for others interested in pursuing a career in the industry, and those who hadn’t even considered it.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already creating exponential impact globally, and locally for our food and fibre supply chain, by alleviating workforce and labour shortages – a problem for Australian and global agriculture. 
In this episode we hear from the Queensland AI Hub about the endless opportunities that Artificial Intelligence offers the Australian tech industry and how we can make the most of it. 

This week, we speak to Emma Weston, CEO and Co-Founder of AgriDigital about blockchain technology, how it’s evolved and used across agricultural industries today, specifically grains, and how it’s empowering farmers to access value beyond the farm gate.

Oli Madgett wears many hats – grape grower, tech founder, advisor, mentor, and father. His adaptable nature and in-depth understanding of the agrifood industry has made him a go-to figure in Australian agritech.
