Whether applied in autonomous agricultural machinery, to reduce food waste, or establish food standards, Al's role in the process demands consideration. With more than 50 per cent of the population engaged in agriculture, which accounts for over 18 per cent of India's GDP, there is a compelling argument to be made for leveraging AI to achieve improved outcomes. THEUNS KOTZE, Managing Director, Assurance IMETA (India, Middle East, Turkey and Africa), British Standards Institution (BSI)
The United Nations predicts a 60 per cent increase in global food demand by 2050 to sustain our growing population. With agriculture contributing to around a quarter of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, feeding the world in a way that is safe, nutritious and sustainable, is one of the central and most complex societal challenges we face today. Can AI be part of the solution for food security? Can farmers and manufacturers collaborate to help make the food we eat safer, healthier, and better for people and the planet? And if so, how can we build trust in a food and farming system where AI plays a pivotal role?
