Our last meeting of the year for members in Latin America takes place on November 10. It will feature a very special program, starting with a lecture on digital agriculture in Argentina, given by Fernando Scaramuzza (Coordination of Precision Agriculture at INTA - Argentina) followed by a presentation on the new LGPD (General Data Protection Law) with a specialist in digital law, Dr. Ana Paula Siqueira. She will explain this topic and respond to questions and concerns from our members.

We are advancing with the Soil Laboratory Data Standardization project, whose leader is Ronaldo Pereira de Oliveira. We will present status and next steps at the upcoming meeting.
