日本国内ではこれまで高付加価値型農業を牽引してきた農業従事者の高齢化により、その経験や勘の継承が困難な状況に面しています。
また、他国では最新技術の導入により農業の生産性向上と経営改善が促進されており、日本においてもこれらの課題に対する取り組みが進められています。
今回、農業に求められる情報をネット上で共有化する農業データ連携プラットフォーム「WAGRI」構築に取り組んでおられる神成教授に、同プラットフォーム構築の背景と今後について伺いました。

As our food network becomes more globalized and interconnected, we have seen a shift towards greater transparency and integrity as consumers are awakened to issues of food safety and traceability. With this has come a recognition that we cannot build a safer and more efficient food supply chain without the support of local and national public partners.

With this has come a recognition that we cannot build a safer and more efficient food supply chain without the support of local and national public partners. Utilizing our collective resources, industry stakeholders and governments can work more effectively together to ensure that there are safeguards in place along the entire value chain, from origination to the end consumer.
