FROM the green revolution after World War Two to GPS-guided tractors and today’s explosion of sensors, satellites and AI, agriculture has undergone significant technological transformations at key points in time. 
Birchip Cropping Group’s Ag Tech Expo at Charlton Park on Wednesday will open with a keynote address that captures this evolution, and looks ahead to what the next 200 seasons could hold for Australian agriculture.
Hamish Munro, co-founder and CEO of Pairtree Intelligence will lead the thought-provoking session that exploring how far farming has come and why data, and the stories it tells, will define the farmers of the future.
“We’ve come through Ag 2.0, the post-war green revolution, through to Ag 3.0 and 4.0, where GPS, sensors, robotics and AI have entered the scene,” Munro said. “But if we want technology to work for us in the future, we need to feed it the right information now.”
BCG’s Jess Bidstrup said Munro’s message would resonate with growers across the Wimmera and Mallee. “This  isn’t just about the latest tech – it’s about combining our lived experience .”
