LandWISE 2019 is an official part of Techweek2019. Information about the Conference is here>. This post tells a little about the big Techweek concept, and has some glimpses of our history since our origins in a paddock in 1999.
The intention behind Techweek is simple. New Zealand’s technology and innovation sectors are growing rapidly, and Techweek fosters that growth by providing the national ecosystem with a week-long opportunity for connection and cross-pollination, using an independent platform to amplify New Zealand’s unique and inspiring innovation stories to the world.
Why is LandWISE part of Techweek? Because it is a perfect fit!
Since we began in a paddock in 1999, we’ve investigated technologies, processes and systems that can help make food production sustainable.
Whether it be strip-till equipment, autosteer tractors, precsion guidance, irrigator and fertiliser calibration methods, sensors or just good agronomy, “Sustainable Cropping Through Technology” has been part of us.
We’ve covered many themes, adapting as our membership’s needs and curiosities have changed.
LandWISE 2019 continues this with stories and reports about technologies for nitrate management, weed management, drainage and more.
We’re proud to be part of Techweek19.
