Automation Showcase – challenges & future opportunities
Vineland is home to Canada’s Automation Cluster under the Canadian Agricultural Partnership supported by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada.
As part of the conclusion of five years of applied research focused on Canada’s Automation Cluster, Vineland conducted interviews with 26 different organizations involved in horticultural automation in early 2023. These interviews provided a great overview to understand how the companies work in the space, where they see the best opportunities and how they can be connected to enhance impact for the sector. They also highlighted many challenges faced by this emerging sector and the growth and key learnings gained over the past five years. Findings can be found in the report below.
