Andy caught up with Peter back in May this year to learn more about the 2035 Oceania Summit, set to take place on 10-11 October 2022 in Auckland, New Zealand.
The 2035 Oceania Summit has been designed to enable the region’s scientific and research community, its industry leaders, agribusiness and agritech companies, farmers and growers, regulators, and policymakers to meet and discuss how agrifood tech innovation and on-farm application can help address the existential threat posed by climate change.
