With the explosive growth in global greenhouse emissions, the FAO has recommended the use of AgriTech to deal with climate change and food insecurity.

However, the growth of new adversarial capabilities makes it challenging for stakeholders to trust autonomous smart farms.

AgriTrust will carry out the first multi-disciplinary study that investigates the legal, regulatory, and technological aspects of smart farming.

It will also develop novel measures to deal with that trust deficit to enable the AgriTech farmer’s posture to change from a reactive and forensics-based approach to a predictive and proactive approach to addressing the safety, cybersecurity, privacy, and regulatory risks.
