I consider myself to be very fortunate to have got the opportunity to take part in AGRICO 2022 program. Being an undergraduate student, this program helped me a lot in my future pathways and also to set my mind in achieving my goals. What’s great about agriculture is that we learn out of the program and also help protect the land and earth for a rich life in future. I thank everyone who is a part of this program and wish you all the success to take this program for many years to come.

AGRICO 2022 was a well organized conference that provided good avenue for researchers to share research findings as well as learn from others across the globe. I found the conference to have unique approach of having several keynote speakers handling very key topics on sustainable agriculture in face of climate change as well as agricultural digitization among others whose sections were given adequate time and uniquely distributed. Choice of presenters, presentation quality, organization of daily program, time keeping and overall organization of this conference was up to standard. Summing it up, i personally learned a lot from the conference; starting from overall organization, presentation content as well as time keeping skills. My recommendations: The organizers should keep up and also disseminate future calls widely across the globe for many more researchers to benefit from the conference. It is my kind request that once Corona problem is over, physical conference should be blended with virtual for the benefit of researchers who would like to participate but are unable to travel. This type of conference is a unique platform where many upcoming and also experienced agricultural, food security and environmental scientist would like participate.

I highly recommend the International Conference on Agriculture and Fisheries. It is very informative. You will really gain knowledge and learn from different researchers all over the world, which is the main goal of research. Other countries will learn and probably adopt and try the different results of the research conducted in our respective countries. The new technology and apps presented will surely help our farmers. I hope that it will reach our farmers from all over the world. This research conference opened a lot of avenues for us to not see farming as one of the poorest jobs. But, we can see it now as being creative and exciting. I commend the hard work and dedication of all the working committees. The program was organized and systematic. They see to it that as much as possible is on time. They help us troubleshoot technical glitches. Thank you very much and I am looking forward to more research conferences in the future.

Personally aside the great opportunity of having to present my research on an international platform, AGRICO 2022 has given me all the assistance I need as a young scientists to advance in the field of Publishing. All my queries about publishing have been resolve and I therefore recommend this conference (International conference on agriculture and food security) to young and upcoming scientists and experts who seek to present their research on an international platform, network other scientist across the globe and increase their chances of publishing in high impact journals.
