Engineering and Technology Innovation for Global Food Security

From October 24, 2016 until October 27, 2016

At Stellenbosch, South Africa

A fast-growing world population, estimated to reach 9.1 billion in 2050, presents numerous challenges, many of them requiring scientific and technical solutions. ASABE has identified food security, as well as water security and energy security, as a critical theme among these challenges. The Society is pleased to host this conference, in collaboration with Stellenbosch University, to facilitate the exchange of information, to foster innovation, and to encourage the development of partnerships necessary for solving food security challenges.
