Open FiBL Day – Organic agriculture and beyond: Programme online and registration now open

Logo Open FiBL Day

On May 27 the FiBL Group invites you to the digital Open FiBL Day.

Organic – a word, that is on everyone’s lips right now. But what is organic agriculture all about? What does organic nutrition actually mean? Is an organic lifestyle part of the solution for 21st century crises and challenges like climate change, famine or globalisation? Let’s take a closer look: at our first digital Open FiBL Day we take you on a journey to the world of organic – and beyond! Find out, how organic farming can contribute to climate change mitigation, what chickens have to do with organic apple growing in the future, if control with water markers really works or what FiBL’s contribution to sustainable cocoa production looks like.
