This year’s congress will focus on two key issues: intensifying food production and environmental protection, in particular the conservation of biodiversity; both set against the more immediate context of Brexit.
There will be sessions on the future of agriculture in the UK, with speakers representing key stakeholders such as the National Farmers Union, NIAB, the Agricultural Industries Association and research institutes such as Rothamsted. Precision agriculture and its regulation (hosted by the UK CRD) also features within the congress theme.
