The first Global Conference on Agriculture was scheduled for Berlin, Germany, on 11–13 March 2022 and was delivered online amid the continuing challenges of the coronavirus pandemic. The proceedings included contributions connected with Germany, Bangladesh, Thailand, Brazil, Vietnam, and Italy, giving the inaugural edition an international research base from the start.
The program established several subjects that remained important in later AGRICONF editions. Research examined spatial decision-support systems, smart farming and productivity, agricultural emissions, machine learning in the food sector, sustainable value chains, livestock genetics, and the changing relationship between technology, economics, and agricultural development.
