Open for Submissions · Strategic Dialogue on the Future of EU Agriculture

Global Scientific Conference
"AgriTech-One"

A Diamond Open Access Scientific Event

Wars in 2026—escalations in the Middle East, in Africa, in Eastern Europe and others—have created war driven food crises. To overcome these bottlenecks and to discuss how climate-adaptive crops can empower disrupted supply chains, we invite you to share data and perspectives. The conference is Digital Poster and Asynchronous Video based. Every accepted submission receives a unique Digital Object Identifier (DOI), providing a permanent link to digital content, ensuring that research articles and other digital objects remain accessible even if their URLs change.Proceedings are published with ISBN and ISSN, indexed on Google Scholar and archived on DG AGRI repository, ORCID Compliant and ROR Integrated.
