How Syngenta is thinking about AI with Feroz Sheikh

How Syngenta is thinking about AI with Feroz Sheikh

Not too long ago, we co-published a paper on the future of AI called “Yield Maps Killed AgTech Software, Can AI Save It?” and got a ton of great responses from across the industry. One such responder wrote in from his seat at the Syngenta Group, where he’s helped the organization go from zero to 250 million acres digitally served in just five years. Feroz Sheikh, Chief Information and Digital Officer at Syngenta Group, offered some incredibly nuanced responses to the limitations and opportunities in this space, and we knew we wanted to have him come on to talk more about his internal perspective on evaluating AI, advancing digitization goals in a legacy ag organization, and what he see in the future of ag software.
