Convergence Of Research in Digital Agriculture Leading Labs

Digital agriculture stands for the digitalisation of agriculture. It has been the focus of a growing number of research and innovation projects over the last 10 years. In France, #DigitAg is the first structuring large research project ‘about and for’ digital agriculture. Other research projects & programmes have followed, at regional level, such as OccitANum (Occitanie Digital AgroEcology), at national level such as the ‘Agroecology & Digital Tech’ program and its flagship projects (CoEditAg, Wait4, Pl@ntAgroEco, LINDDA), and at European level such as the CODECS and QUANTIFARM (tbc) projects. #DigitAg is also connected to other vibrant communities devoted to research in Digital Agriculture emerging worldwide, in Africa or South America.

The year 2026 will mark the end of several of these projects, eg #DigitAg, CODECS, QUANTIFARM but also the ramp-up of newly-developed projects on digital agriculture worldwide, especially in Africa - as part of the TSARA initiative - and South America, in relationship with CGIAR and with Brasilian ecosystem. This pivotal moment is the opportunity to organise an International Conference, in order to build convergences between continents, between disciplines, between pioneering and newcomers in digital agriculture research.
