Why is this important?

The future of food depends on smarter, more sustainable systems. As agriculture faces mounting challenges, from climate change to water and labour shortages, technology offers powerful tools to reduce waste, preserve resources, and increase resilience. This award recognizes the innovators who are building those tools and transforming the agri-food system.
 
This year, the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair is proud to spotlight an innovator, entrepreneur or enterprise working to lead Canada’s transition to sustainable agriculture through technology. Come witness the top finalists present their ideas live at the Fair.
 
Be part of the momentum and celebrate the next wave of sustainability leaders and AgTech disruptors.
