Personal statement

Now more than ever is a pivotal time in agriculture. In recent years we have seen vast changes in regulations, emerging risks, a changing environment, consumer demands and a more vocal supply chain. I invite others to come join in the global conversation taking place at the GLOBALG.A.P. SUMMIT so that we can collaborate and work together toward finding solutions to some of the world’s greatest challenges in the agricultural sector.
