Please note that this event is in-person only and only participants who received a confirmation message will be admitted to the venue.


We stand at a pivotal moment of change in the EU, with a new legislative cycle and the challenge of balancing green goals with industrial needs. Decarbonizing agriculture and food production is central to this transition, demanding the advancement and upscaling of innovative solutions and sustainable practices.

To enhance sustainable agriculture and transform our food systems, we need to collaborate across the food value chain. Fertilizers Europe Annual Conference "The Future of Agriculture and Food Production in the EU" on 15 October 2024 in Residence Palace, Brussels will be an opportunity to explore innovative approaches, address critical challenges, and forge a path towards sustainable agriculture and resilient food systems.
