The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) has created a new focus group to explore the digitization of agriculture. The new focus group "AI and IoT for Digital Agriculture" (FG-AI4A) aims to work closely with the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) using new digital technologies to make the global agriculture sector fit for the future. Dr.-Ing. Sebastian Bosse, group leader of the "Interactive & Cognitive Systems" group in the "Vision and Imaging Technologies" department at Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (HHI) will chair the focus group.
