Blog and Webinar Series: AI For Food Systems Research
This is a special series from the IFPRI-led initiative AI For Food Systems Research focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) in research practice. Amid the growing use of AI in agricultural research, policy, and extension, this project brings together researchers and practitioners across CGIAR and its partners to explore how AI tools can be designed, applied, and governed responsibly in food systems research and innovation. The series is led by Eliot Jones-Garcia, IFPRI Senior Research Analyst, and co-curated by Jessica Leight, IFPRI Senior Research Fellow, and Jona Repishti, Assistant Director, Global Gender, Digital Green.
