Digitaal in Londen

Vandaag was er de jaarlijkse conferentie tussen DEFRA (het UK ministerie voor landbouw) en de AES (de beroepsvereniging van landbouweconomen). Dit jaar over resilience in het voedselsysteem. Ik gaf een presentatie over de rol van data en digitalisering. Hier is de presentatie

ik leg ook nog een paar van mijn tweets vast: Nice lecture by prof. Bob Doherty (York) in the DEFRA-#AES conference: Rethink Resilience: it is about Robustness, Recovery, Reorientation and Reorganisation.

In the DEFRA-#AES conference @PeterFeindt presents @surefarmproject results. Policies are more oriented to robustness or at best adaptibility and seldom towards transformation. En:Transformation in policy measures seems to have mainly a symbolic function, but at leest communicates to actors where society wants to go.

Panic buying and absence of labour due to Covid-19 (and its outbreaks) were the issues that most of all threathened resilience of the food system in the last year, David Kennedy (Defra) explained in the Defra-#AES conference. And with Brexit the N.Ireland border gains attention.
