Due to the increasing quantity of data in agrosciences, there is a need for specific tools which place statistics and data science at the heart of challenges of the contemporary world. The AGROSTAT conference gives statisticians, engineers and users of statistical methods a unique opportunity to exchange around topics, such as sensometrics, chemometrics, experimental designs, risk analysis, process control or big data.

This event brings together more than a hundred of internationally recognized academic and industrial organizations representatives, to take stock of advances in statistics, express their needs and to anticipate future challenges.

This conference, which is held every two years, is organized this year by Aix-Marseille University, the Mediterranean Institute of Biodiversity and Marine and Continental Ecology, UMR CNRS 7263 / IRD 237, team Toxicology & Environmental Health (TSE), under the auspices of the Agro-Industry Group of the French Statistical Society (SFdS). The SFdS is a non-profit organisation bringing together researchers, engineers, teachers and statistics users (website: https://www.sfds.asso.fr).

The conference "AGROSTAT 2018" will take place from March 14 to March 16, 2018 in Marseille (France), in the Aix-Marseille University premises. The workshops will take place on March 13, 2018.
