Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s Market and industry Services Branch in Charlottetown is bringing Treadway in to give potato growers some insight on what the market holds.
Treadway is one of a handful of speakers who will cover everything from crop yield and production numbers to food safety and changes at the retail level at the Nov. 16 gathering in Charlottetown.
As a consultant and foresight advisor, Treadway has given large corporations, trade associations and other clients the lowdown on what is just over the horizon for their business and a strategy to succeed.
He will speak over the lunch hour 12-1:30pm at the Delta Hotel.
Among the areas Bob will cover in his presentation:
- How global demand is creating a new plateau for food production and pressure for higher land values.
- How the US consumer will behave in the next 5 years.
- Examples of farming operations that are using innovation, differentiation, and new layers of technology to become "future-proof."
