28th ANNUAL ICABR CONFERENCE

Since 1960, global food production surged by 390%, with only a 10% increase in land use, yet food systems contribute 21-37% of GHG emissions. The OECD emphasizes agriculture’s triple challenge: ensuring ample, affordable, safe, and nutritious food, sustaining livelihoods, and bolstering sustainability while combatting climate change. Achieving this necessitates innovations for enhanced crop productivity and a circular bioeconomy. To meet these goals, policies must promote investment in productivity, implement suitable regulations, and facilitate innovation adoption without excessive regulatory constraints. Farmers need access to technologies that boost yields, income, and soil health while safeguarding the environment.
