Smart Manufacturing ∗ Living ― Application of Future Agricultural Technology under Different Climates

Opening Speech: Mr. Gerd Müller, DG of the UNIDO Chaired by: Mr. Dejene Tezera, Director of Department of Agri-Business, UNIDO Co-Chaired by: Mr. Richard Gauss, MA 24, Health and Sports, UNIDO

Time and location

12. Okt. 2023, 11:30 – 13:00 MESZ

Vienna International Centre, CR1 & CR2, 2nd Floor

Speakers

Background:

Tailoring agricultural technologies to specific climates tackles global farming challenges. Rainforest Agricultural Parks in tropical climates use agroforestry, vertical farming, and bio-intensive techniques for sustainability and conservation. In contrast, Desert Agricultural Parks in arid areas employ precision irrigation, drought-resistant crops, and innovative practices to address water scarcity. Such adaptive strategies ensure food production, environmental protection, and community empowerment across varied regions.

Keynote Speakers:

Mr. Daoliang Li, Director of National Digital Fishery Innovation Center, China Agricultural University 

-Topic: Intensive and efficient agriculture, IOT in fish farming

Panel Discussion:

  • Topic 1: TBD
  • Topic 2: TBD 
  • Topic 3: TBD
  • Topic 4: TBD

Panelist:

  • Mr. Alfred Gusenbauer, Former Chancellor of Austria (Salmon project Waldviertel: Forest salmon) 
  • Ecoduna (Algae production in Bruck/Leitha)  
  • Mr. Friedrich Führer, CEO of Genostar Rinderbesamung GmbH  
  •  Mr. Schulz Niels, Agro-Innovation and Bioeconomy Unit, IET/AGR/AIB UNIDO  
  • Mr. Daoliang Li, Director of National Digital Fishery Innovation Center, China Agricultural University
  •  FAO Plant Production and Protection Division (NSP) 

Workshops: 

These workshops will explore the interplay between advanced agricultural technology and global climatic conditions. Discussions will focus on tailoring tech solutions for diverse climates, from tropical rainforests to arid deserts. Participants will investigate how precision agriculture and innovative techniques can boost productivity and resource efficiency across different climate scenarios.
