CAFE, the IEEE Conference on AgriFood Electronics, is the reference for cutting edge electronics research applied to the AgriFood chain of value. Electronics are ready to leverage the change in paradigm for managing all the food chain stages, from smart and precision agriculture up to the processing phase and the selling points. Electronics and Sensors can dialogue with nature to help farmers and all food chain stakeholders to understand and protect the environment, facing the challenges related to Climate Change and Natural Resource Optimization.
