SESSION DESCRIPTION
4th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CROP IMPROVEMENT: Sustainability through Data Driven and Frontier Research
SESSION I - Big-Data and Decision Support System in Crop Improvement
Research on how the big data information generated on yield prediction, risk management, food safety and spoilage prevention, operation/equipment management could be deciphered for beneficial use on crop improvement using powerful analytical tools and software.
- Sensor-based data
- Geo-informatics
- Crop modelling and simulation
- Smart farming
SESSION II - Crop Systems Biology and Translational Genomics
Research on impact of accessibility of genome sequences of important crops like oil palm and the various cereal crops together with omics, bioinformatics and genetic manipulation tools, biological systems and their interaction with environment.
- Omics Platform
- Functional Genomics
- Genomic assisted breeding
- Phenotypic traits express at crop level
SESSION III - Harnessing Plant Microbiome and Botanicals for Crop Protection
Research on various strategies to improve sustainable crop production through involvement of plant microbiota in enhancing important functions for their host’s performance, and mediate functions like nutrient delivery, fitness, stress tolerance, and pathogen or pest control.
- Yield Improvement
- Plant microbe interaction
- Nutritional acquisition
- Protection against (a)biotic stress
SESSION IV - Agricultural Sustainability through Traceability
Research on agricultural traceability-what it means, why it is important, and what it looks like from the perspectives of the consumers, the supply chain owners and the community to achieve global agricultural sustainability.
- Technology added tracing system
- Traceability and consumer trust
- Traceability for global food supply chain
