Do you have what it takes to creatively solve on-farm problems?

AgTech Hackathon Manawatu is looking for technology experts, leaders with marketing and business experience, young, innovative thinkers and experienced rural professionals with an understanding of the market.

AgTech Hackathon Manawatu is a free event presented by CEDA and powered by Microsoft, Accelerate25 and BCC connects smart farmers with smarter on-farm solutions.

AgTech Hackathon Manawatu, launched during AgriFood Week, will enable the farming community to present on-farm opportunities and challenges to technology and business experts. The experts use their creativity to come up with solutions that attempt to solve these problems. This year the focus is around water.

The Hackathon takes places on 3, 4 and 5 May at The Factory, 21 Dairy Farm Road, Palmerston North.
