The theme for this year&#8217;s Trends In Agriculture is Progress Through Productivity.<\/p>\n<p>This just in&#8230;Jeff Simmons, President of Elanco, will be hosting the closing session that is shared with NAFB! Below is an overview of this session:<\/p>\n<p>A growing wave of food insecurity threatens more than 1 billion people around the world, and the number of malnourished could grow staggeringly as the population reaches 9 billion by mid-century. Solutions exist today to help meet food needs, but consumers don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want technology used in food production. Right?<\/p>\n<p>Jeff Simmons will explore this modern myth that consumers don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want modern, efficient technology used in food production.<\/p>\n<p>To better understand consumer opinions, Elanco commissioned a research review of 27 studies accounting for more than 97,000 consumers in 26 countries to further analyze this trend. The results may surprise you.<\/p>\n<p>It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time to call a truce to the debate on the role of technology in sustainable food production and assure the 3 Basic Rights its use can afford. Learn more about consumer perceptions of technology and the role technology and choice play in feeding a growing population.
