China's 2024 No.1 Central Document is putting agricultural modernization in the spotlight—and tech is stealing the show! 🌾 Syngenta Group CEO Jeff Rowe told CGTN the company is doubling down on innovation in the Chinese mainland's farming sector this year, calling it a 'game-changer' for rural development.
💡 Rowe highlighted how farmers worldwide are leveling up their skills with digital tools and climate-smart strategies to combat unpredictable weather. "It's like farming meets Fortnite—adaptability is key to surviving this climate boss battle," he said, nodding to Gen Z's love of gaming metaphors.
China's push for high-tech agriculture aligns with Syngenta's plans to boost R&D in crop science and precision farming. The CEO also teased upcoming collabs with local partners, hinting at AI-driven solutions that could make farm drones as common as TikTok filters. 📱
With 60% of the world's population living in Asia, Rowe emphasized that modernizing agriculture isn't just about profits—it’s about food security for the next generation. 🌍✨
