Robotics and Automation in Agrifood Systems
February 13, 2026
Agrifood robotics and automation are moving rapidly from pilot to real-world applications. From autonomous machinery to precision agritech and AI operations, these technologies are opening new possibilities - but also raising important questions about costs, impact and long-term viability. At our global E-Dialogue we looked beyond technology demonstrations and focused on governance, finance and evidence - the factors that determine whether automation delivers real sustainability gains or creates new lock-ins. Watch forward-looking expert panel and discussion that connects innovation, investment, and impact!
