Agriculture

Agriculture across the world is facing challenges. Global climate changes affect productivities and predictability, creating prolonged drought, flood, loss of ecological balance, and temperature shift that made food production and forest conservation more difficult. The challenges are aggravated further with pandemic, which greatly affect logistics and mobility of agricultural goods, people, and labors. This may cause hunger and poverty across nations.

Innovation in agriculture can mitigate the negative impact of these challenges. Reducing labors, facilitating trades, and sharing real-time information can reduce the risks of pandemic, while increasing the effectiveness in production and food distribution can make food more accessible to more people.
