All on board! “Travel Around the World with Digital FAO and Agro-Informatics” - Wageningen University & Research

Join the new virtual workshop series: “Travel Around the World with Digital FAO and Agro-Informatics.” Designed as a global tour, each stop will highlight how students and universities are engaging with FAO’s cutting-edge tools to explore the use of data and technology in agriculture-related research.

Next stop on this global journey is Wageningen University & Research, taking place on 30 May 2025 at 10:00 CEST.

Participants will enjoy a live introduction to FAO’s Agro-Informatics Platform and Digital Services Portfolio (DSP), followed by a presentation by Ioannis N. Athanasiadis, Professor and Chair of Artificial Intelligence from the Wageningen University & Research, that will explore the journey from digital services to real-world impact through the lens of AI-driven crop yield forecasting, highlighting how these technologies are being practically implemented in their academic research.

This initiative is part of FAO’s ongoing commitment to empower young researchers, foster collaboration with universities, and encourage bold ideas that support sustainable development and agrifood systems transformation.
