Agri-Prize is an incentivized agricultural competition challenging the imagination of farmers to increase the intensity of their management, technology integration and implementation skills to do something that has never been done before in farming.
In order to provide food security for the planet, agriculture will be called on to significantly increase production capacity while ensuring long-term environmental sustainability.
The Agri-Prize Competition is designed so that together, all participants learn how to shatter barriers as they pursue methods to provide a safe, reliable and environmentally sustainable food supply to better feed the world.
The Agri-Prize will act as a lightning rod, focusing participating farmers on a specific goal increasing their management intensity and harnessing all their implementation skills.
