Call for Papers: Smart Agriculture & Sustainable Development Conferences (2026)

The future of food security lies at the intersection of Agriculture, Automation, and Sustainability. As we approach 2026, the academic community is focusing heavily on "Smart Agriculture"—the application of IoT, robotics, and AI to farming—to ensure a sustainable future.

For researchers, agronomists, and engineers, we have curated a list of high-impact conferences scheduled for 2026. These events bridge the gap between traditional agricultural science and modern industrial automation.

1. ICAAA 2026 - The Hub for Agricultural Science
