About the Conference 

The Sustainable Agroecosystems & Emerging Innovations International Research Conference 2019 is designed to highlight the scholarly work of researchers engaged in two general research spheres specifically:

Sustainable Agricultural Systems

The Conference aims to be a platform for presenting the work of researchers engaged in ensuring food security through sustainable, eco-friendly ways. This includes studies that are blazing new trails in agricultural research by rethinking, innovating, developing and revolutionizing our current knowledge, farming methods and practices that increase food production while also championing the preservation and care of surrounding ecosystems for future generations. This conference theme aims to place at the fore research as an indispensable means by which sustainable progress is achieved.

Emerging Innovations that Impact Markets and Institutions

This theme includes research that seeks to provide opportunities for technology- leveraged learning that can be derived from recent research work coming from academics and industry professionals. As digitalization continues to transform the world as we know it, the Conference also wishes to provide an avenue for featuring research that embrace technological advances in order to improve business and industrial productivity, health, and disaster reduction, among others. This theme includes studies that provide inventive and innovative solutions to problems experienced by markets and institutions by seeking gains through the use of technological innovation including the internet-of-things (IoT) technology.
