The Food Effect Presented by Land O’Lakes at Trinity Hall, 311 E. Fifth St. is one of the many exciting projects put together for this year’s SXSW 2018. This event has speakers and panels directed toward connections between food, agriculture, technology. Attendees have the chance to learn about food production, the issues with food on a global scale and how technology is providing solutions.
Land ‘O’ Lakes presented various panels such as “Dairy and Dialogue: Meet Today’s Modern Farmer,” “Central Dialogue: Why the Future of Food Will Look Like the Past—Human,” “Central Dialogue: The Mathematical Age of Agriculture,” and “Nerd Nite: A Tale of Two Cities—Empowering Communities on the Front Lines of Food Security.”
It's time for honest conversations about how food, agriculture and tech really intersect. So it's fitting the #TheFoodEffect kicks things off today with "Science Can Save the World: (But Only If We Let It)" #SXSW @pcronald @beth_dunford pic.twitter.com/MwQk9A2xlT
