Course Introduction
Background
Agriculture, the foundation of human civilization for millennia, faces mounting challenges amidst global population growth. With projections reaching 8.6 billion by 2030 and 9.8 billion by 2050, the demand for food and resources accelerates, straining limited agricultural capacities while confronting climate change and sustainability concerns.
In response, there has been a growing movement towards smarter, more sustainable, and self-sufficient agricultural practices, utilizing new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Systems (RSGIS), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), etc., to improve yields and reduce waste.
In this light, this professional training program is designed to address existing challenges by introducing smart, precision farming practices empowered by cutting-edge technologies. From IoT to AI and ML, participants, including agriculturalists, policymakers, and development partners, gain insights into sustainable agriculture strategies tailored for the digital era.
Join us in Thailand for a transformative experience, led by experts from technology and agricultural fields, showcasing real-world applications and best practices.
