How?
How?
Through a project-driven organization designed to create a dynamic and inclusive platform where projects that intersect agriculture with other disciplines are showcased. These projects, ordered alphabetically and numbered sequentially as received, form an index that highlights the diverse ways in which agriculture intersects with various fields.
This approach could foster cross-disciplinary collaboration, encourage innovative thinking, and offer fresh perspectives on agricultural challenges and solutions.
The Agriculture Biennale is a urgent call to action!
