The Asian Society of Agricultural Economists (ASAE) is a recognized association of agricultural economists and other professionals in Asia. The ASAE International Conference effectively promotes scientific and technical interactions among agricultural economists, development practitioners, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students from all over the world. It provides an excellent opportunity to share knowledge and ideas for research, teaching, as well as real-world policy making. With the new wave of information technology and biotechnology revolution in the past four decades, Asia faces huge challenges and opportunities to raise agricultural productivity and achieve rural transformation in the new era. The 10^th ASAE International Conference in 2020 will be a good opportunity for participants around the world to learn about agricultural events in China and how Asian countries respond to the opportunities and challenges brought to agriculture by the fourth industrial revolution.
