Reflections on technological progress in the agri‐food industry: Past, present, and future

Abstract

Technological advances—for example, from hand milking to robotic milking—are at the heart of economic transformation and have significantly shaped the agri‐food industry and economic growth throughout history. A look at the lead article of the first issue (and the first volume, 1952) of the Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics (CJAE) 70 years ago reveals an ongoing inquiry within the discipline about how technological progress has shaped how we manage our farms with the implications on aggregate industry productivity and food prices. The topics discussed along these lines in the first issue of the CJAE are still relevant today—for example, challenges with measuring productivity and innovation, diffusion of innovation, technological unemployment, demand for skilled workers, financing innovations, climate change and food security. Science, technology, and innovation for the 21st century hold the potential to foster resilient and sustainable intensification of farm production and productivity growth for the agri‐food industry. In this address, I reflect on the past, present, and future impacts of technological innovations and productivity growth on the agri‐food industry and discuss the implications for future research, welfare, and policy. Les progrès technologiques, par exemple, de la traite à la main à la traite robotisée, sont au cœur de la transformation économique et ont considérablement façonné l'industrie agroalimentaire et la croissance économique à travers l'histoire. Un regard sur l'article principal du premier numéro (et du premier volume, 1952) du Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics (CJAE) il y a soixante‐dix ans révèle une enquête continue au sein de la discipline sur la façon dont le progrès technologique a façonné la façon dont nous gérons nos fermes avec les implications sur la productivité globale de l'industrie et les prix alimentaires. Les sujets abordés dans ce sens dans le premier numéro du CJAE sont toujours d'actualité, par exemple les défis de la mesure de la productivité et de l'innovation, la diffusion de l'innovation, le chômage technologique, la demande de travailleurs qualifiés, le financement des innovations, le changement climatique et la sécurité alimentaire. La science, la technologie et l'innovation pour le 21e siècle ont le potentiel de favoriser une intensification résiliente et durable de la production agricole et de la croissance de la productivité pour l'industrie agroalimentaire. Dans cette allocution, je réfléchis aux impacts passés, présents et futurs des innovations technologiques et de la croissance de la productivité sur l'industrie agroalimentaire et discute des implications pour la recherche, le bien‐être et les politiques futures.
