Smart agriculture is seen as an important means in solving the problems along the agricultural value chain. Hence, governments of many countries are adopting various policy measures to promote smart agriculture. However, the adoption of smart agriculture is still in its early stage, especially among smallholder farmers in Asia. In addition, the prevalence of smart agriculture may lead to structural changes such as capital-intensification of farming, commercialization of collected data, and intensifying polarization between leading and small farmers.
FFTC, ATRI, TARI and NACF are thus co-organizing an online international forum entitled “The Way to Smart Agriculture Value Chain for Small-scale Farmers – Policies & Challenges.” There will be 2 keynote speakers, 8 general speakers and 3 panelists, who will be invited from government offices, research institutes, universities, and private companies of 10 countries, to present the ongoing policy measures and strategies to promote smart agriculture, and to evaluate the possible structural changes that smart agriculture will bring and share the countermeasures.
There will be the following 3 sessions which aim to provide comprehensive scopes of strategies, challenges, possible structural changes, and countermeasures:
Session 1: Policy Measures and Case Study
Session 2: Challenges and Countermeasures for Promoting Smart Agriculture; and
Session 3: General Discussion
We are cordially inviting all researchers, industry players, farmers, and enthusiasts to register and join this video forum. We sincerely welcome your participation. For forum information and registration, please click on the link:

智慧農業被視為是解決農業價值鏈問題的重要手段，因此，許多國家正在採取各種政策與措施來推廣智慧農業。然而，智慧農業的採用仍處於早期的萌芽階段，尤其是亞洲地區的小型農戶。此外，智慧農業的普及性將可能帶來如農業資本集約化、數據商業化應用等結構性的改變，並進一步加深前瞻性農民和小型農戶之間的兩極化發展。
為此，本中心與財團法人農業科技研究院（ATRI）、農業試驗所（TARI）及韓國農協中央會（NACF）共同舉辦一場「小農邁向智慧農業價值鏈之路–政策與挑戰」的線上國際論壇。論壇中將邀請來自10個國家的政府部門、研究機構、大學和私營企業至少13位講者，透過2場專題演講、8場一般演講和專家綜合討論等議程，介紹進行中的智慧農業推廣政策與策略，並評估智慧農業將可能帶來的結構性變化及因應策略分享。
本論壇有下述3個場次，旨在提供關於智慧農業的策略、挑戰、可能的結構變化和因應對策的全面性觀點，其主題分別為：
主題一：政策措施和最佳實踐案例研究
主題二：推廣智慧農業的挑戰與對策
主題三：專家綜合討論
我們誠摯地邀請所有研究人員、企業經營管理者、農民與對智慧農業議題有興趣者，註冊加入此線上論壇。我們竭誠地歡迎您的參與。
