AGROSYM is, since eight years, an annual platform for international scientific discussion on agriculture, food, rural development, environment and forestry. AGROSYM represents a good opportunity to exchange ideas, to strengthen existing and to create new academic networks, and to foster dialogue between the academia, public institutions, the private sector and civil society organizations on the recent global and regional trends in the agro-food sector. AGROSYM covers the following thematic areas: plant production, plant protection and food safety, organic agriculture, environment protection and natural resources management, animal husbandry, rural development and agro-economy, and forestry and agroforestry.

 

Multidisciplinary results reported during AGROSYM will contribute to the dissemination of knowledge and good practices to all actors of the agro-food chain (e.g. farmers, extension agents, researchers, policy makers) as well as the general public about the importance of agriculture and food science, one of the most important strategic areas of many national research strategies.

The 7th edition of the International Agriculture Symposium “AGROSYM 2016” made an important contribution to the agriculture practice in different areas. During the four-day Symposium (6-9 October 2016), over 1100 contributions were presented to more than 1000 participants representing 78 world countries. 

This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 730253.
