System Level Change Required For Farmers To Benefit

Artificial intelligence is transforming the agricultural sector, with the global market expected to reach almost $47 billion by 2034. In Canada, policymakers and industry leaders are recognizing the promise of AI, but the country lags behind other G7 nations in system-wide transformation.
