FiBL at Biofach 2024

Soon, from 13 to 16 February, this year's Biofach will take place in Nuremberg. FiBL will also be present and will provide insights into modern and innovative research in organic agriculture.

In addition to presentations by FiBL experts at the Biofach Congress, where the latest results and trends in organic research will be presented, FiBL's stand (3A-509, hall 3a) will focus on the topics of sustainability, global sourcing and sector development and input evaluation as well as consultancy for the assessment and prevention of residues. Additional "We Care" will be present at the stand. The label initiated by FiBL Germany certifies sustainable company and supply chain management.

The topic of plant breeding and FiBL's work in this area is represented by a separate stand (7A-731, hall 7a).

In 2024, FiBL will also be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the "World of Organic Agriculture" statistical yearbook at Biofach. There will be a reception at the FiBL stand on February 14. 

Information on the presentations with FiBL participation can be found below and at biofach.fibl.org/en.
