Video: Navigating a Future of Cross-Sectoral Forces
Share
In the next decade, Australia’s rural industries will face significant changes that have the potential to transform the way we produce, market and consume agricultural goods.
Rapid technological advancements, a changing climate, geopolitical instability, shifting global market dynamics and food security for a growing global population are forces that are set to drastically shape the agricultural sector.
To help navigate these challenges and seize emerging opportunities, AgriFutures Australia and Tenacious Ventures have released the Navigating a Future of Cross-Sectoral Forces research report.
