Course overview

To meet the needs of the world’s growing population, it is estimated that global food production will need to double by 2050. Find out how the latest research and industry practices are addressing increasing global concern around food security and how to feed a growing population.

With training from scientists, professionals and industry-leading farmers learn how science is applied to food production in cropping and pasture systems regionally, national and globally. You’ll gain extensive knowledge into the factors that affect the growth of plants used for food and forage production, and how plant growth can be manipulated through various interventions. Learn how the role of new technologies in improving the yield, profitability and sustainability of food production systems are driving growth in the agricultural industry.
