AgriTech: Digital innovation for a sustainable European Agri-Food sector

Since the emergence of digital technologies in agriculture, the AgriTech sector has rapidly evolved, offering transformative solutions that are reshaping the future of food production. In recent years, digital innovations - ranging from precision farming and AI-driven analytics to blockchain and smart robotics - have begun to revolutionize the agrifood industry, presenting unprecedented opportunities for growth, sustainability, and resilience in European agriculture.

This report on “AgriTech: digital innovation for a sustainable European Agri-Food sector” is part of the EIT Digital Makers & Shapers report series. These reports address specific aspects of digital technologies and developments. They follow a scenario-based approach, grounded on the developments and state of the art in the specific field, and analyse the impact of the different scenarios on specific predefined indicators.

With the potential to transform everything from crop production to supply chain management, AgriTech stands at the forefront of Europe’s efforts to create a more sustainable, resilient, and future-proof agrifood sector.

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion featuring esteemed panellists from the EU institutions, research and the business world.
