OCP Group is a leading producer of phosphate and fertilizer, serving customers around the globe. Building on nearly 100 years of agricultural and industrial knowledge and expertise, OCP is committed to being a globally responsible company, helping to drive sustainable solutions to feed a growing world population.
Aware of the importance of Agri Analytics and Big data in driving change and promoting sustainable agriculture, OCP Group and the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University initiate the Agri Analytics Days which will be held on April 23rd, 24th and 25th, 2019 in BenGuerir city, (60km from Marrakesh), Morocco.
Agri Analytics Days is a platform that aims at exploring Big Data to provide new efficient decisionmaking tools for helping agricultural sustainable development. New acquired, aggregated and shared data is a breeding ground for extracting and sharing useful information and knowledge among different actors involved in agriculture and technology domains to provide actionable on-farm decisions.
Today, a number of digital technologies and trends with the potential of entirely transforming the way we work are now becoming available to the agricultural sector. These include big data, internet of things, robotics, etc. Applying these technologies to agriculture could provide solutions for many of the challenges the sector is facing.
We strongly believe Big Data is one of the major building blocks for effective decision making for farmers, policymakers, companies involved in agri-business and agro-inputs, banks, insurance companies, and service providers.
Agri Analytics Day offers the framework conditions that would bring together all the communities interested by developing sustainable agriculture worldwide. Our aim is to explore Big Data Perspectives and Implementation Challenges in agricultural domains.
