The AgriTwins Next Generation programme heralds a transformative approach to modern agriculture, intertwining advanced cybersecurity with emergent data-centric twin technologies. This programme seeks to address the escalating challenges faced by the agricultural sector, ranging from sustainability concerns to the pressing need for efficiency optimisation, integrating the latest digital twin and quantum twin methodologies to model and enhance agricultural innovation, ensuring digital resilience and cybersecurity.
This amalgamation allows for real-time operational data insights, precision farming, advanced greenhouse emission management, and proactive agronomy. Our aspiration is not merely to adapt to the digital era but to actively shape the future of agriculture, ensuring it remains resilient against both present and unforeseen challenges. Charles Sturt University's AI and Cyber Futures Institute and the Global Digital Farm supported by ArgiPark as well as UNSW, University of Queensland, University of Sydney, CSIRO/Data61 and 9 industry partners bring forth a comprehensive approach.
By harnessing the strengths of emerging technologies, the AgriTwins Program seeks to create a robust, cyber-secure foundation that not only addresses immediate agricultural hurdles but also paves the way for a future-ready, sustainable agricultural landscape. Our goal is to ensure Australia's competitive advantage and decision superiority on the global agricultural markets through cross-disciplinary innovation
