Summit puts future farming in the spotlight

Charles Sturt University played host to the Digital Agrifood Summit in June 2022, which explored the latest in innovation and emerging commercial technologies.

Executive chairman of Bega Cheese, Barry Irvin, delivered a presentation on ‘the circular economy’ during which he spoke of the importance of working collectively towards a more sustainable future by reducing material use, becoming less reliant on resource intensive manufacturing, and capturing and repurposing ‘waste’. Attendees took an up-close and practical look at the digital trends and technologies transforming Australian agriculture.
