The ET Edge Global Sustainability Alliance AgriFood Systems Summit 2026 convenes in Mumbai/ Bangalore this March, igniting a transformative movement.
India stands at a defining moment in its agri-food journey. With an ambitious vision of becoming a $1 trillion agri-economy, agriculture today supports 600 million livelihoods, contributes 18% of GDP, and feeds 1.4 billion people—even as it grapples with climate volatility, post-harvest losses, fragmented supply chains, and market inefficiencies.
The ET Edge Global Sustainability Alliance AgriFood Systems Summit 2025 is a high-impact platform designed to reimagine India’s agri-food ecosystem for 2047. Anchored in the government’s Digital Agriculture Mission and Agri Stack, the summit brings together policymakers, industry leaders, agritech pioneers, investors, FPOs, and global institutions to accelerate the transition toward resilient, tech-enabled, and sustainable food systems.
From AI-powered precision farming and blockchain-driven traceability to circular food economies and climate-resilient supply chains, the summit will spotlight solutions shaping the future of Indian agriculture—at scale.
