Peralta Fern\u00e1ndez emphasized that the integration of cutting-edge tools, such as artificial intelligence, the use of drones, and satellite technology, demands a transformation in the way new professionals in the field are prepared. According to the businessman, current curricula must align with the technological demands of modern agriculture to ensure competitive results.<\/p>\n\n
One of the central points of his speech was the need to foster closer coordination between universities, technical training centers, and producers. This alliance is considered vital by Peralta to develop the necessary skills to face the global challenges of the current agricultural market.<\/p>\n\n
