Case Studies: Insights on Agriculture Innovation 2019 (IAAS Series)
About this ebook
The annual International Agriculture Innovation Conference (IAIC) series started in October 2016 as an assembly platform for leading researchers, educators, and developers to present, discuss, and examine various challenging issues relating to agricultural production and innovation. In January 2018, the International Association for Agricultural Sustainability (IAAS) took IAIC under its wing with expectations that IAIC will continue to expand its influence by inviting more agriculture-related professionals to participate in conferences. I sincerely welcome you to join our conference and to share your ideas on agriculture sustainability with us.
First, I would like to thank the 2019 conference participants who had successfully helped us create the IAIC. The IAIC 2019 would not have been successful without their support and cooperation. Next, I especially appreciate the assistance and support from the IAIC 2019 conference sponsors – Vital Wellspting Pte. Ltd., Singapore, and the Organizer of IAIC 2019 – the University of OULU, Finland and the Asia-Pacific Association of Agricultural Research Institution (APAARI), Thailand. Last but not least, the speakers of IAIC 2019. This book would not have been published without their efforts and contributions.
In order to improve current agricultural circumstances and attain environmental sustainability, agriculture innovation has become the primary strategy nowadays toward achieving these goals. The concept of adapting agricultural innovation to every phase of agricultural production and management is the foundation for this book. This is the sequel of the book “Case Studies: Insights on Agriculture Innovation 2018” which collects information on various agricultural innovation ideas and technologies that have been applied or are being developed for agricultural operations and management in different countries. I believe this book will provide you with new and inspiring ideas about the future of agriculture development, and illustrate how innovations in methods and techniques influence agriculture production, environmental sustainability, and the quality of people’s lives around the world.
(Dr. Cheng-I Wei, Chairman of IAAS)
