Grand Colloque Agtech du Québec 2021 (French)
Come and assist the conference about innovative technologies for the future of agriculture on October 27th 2021 at 1 PM!
Conference: L'optique au service de l'agriculture
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the fragility of supply chains, the structural lack of labor to harness our full agricultural potential, and demonstrated the need to produce more locally. At INO, for over 30 years, we have been developing innovative technologies in photonic optics that support, among other things, food self-sufficiency in Quebec and Canada. In this conference, we share, alongside three of our partners working in the industry, concrete projects such as the automated picking of broccoli in the field or in the greenhouse (cucumbers and mushrooms), soil analysis and that of plants.
