Now entering its fourth year, The VISION Conference has become established as the definitive precision agriculture and digital farming conference for North America, providing market-tested insights into the changes in precision and digital agriculture that are set to transform agribusiness over the coming three to five years. As organizers of the conference, Meister Media Worldwide can leverage decades of agriculture and horticulture market experience and North America’s global leadership in precision agriculture to provide practical insights that improve the future of today’s agribusinesses.

The conference’s 2019 program brought together senior-level agribusiness professionals and a host of experts from tech, academia, large-scale growing operations, precision service providers, and other stakeholders from more than 130 companies to discuss and explore the probable longer-term impacts of a range of technologies including robotics and automation, sensors, data analytics and management, decision-support systems, broadband, and blockchain.

Attendees also had an opportunity to participate in an exclusive pre-conference IoT for Earth Summit on the campus of VISION Conference partner Microsoft, where the company’s Project FarmBeats personnel previewed plans for agriculture to be fully introduced this year.
