Professor Hermann Lotze-Campen was invited to a panel discussion on 'Agriculture in the climate crisis: Identify ways out and find solutions!'. Together with experts Jan Plagge (president of Bioland e.V. and IFOAM Organics Europe), Bernt Farcke (Resort coordinator Sustainability/Head of department on forest, sustainability and renewable raw materials at BMEL), and others the panel tried to identify sustainable pathways for the future of the agriculture and food sector.
Results of the conference will feed into the ministry's transformation report on sustainable agriculture and food systems and other projects such as the food strategy and the development of a national strategy for 30% organic agriculture and food. The results of the conference will also be discussed in the 'Youth Policy Forum' on 22./23. September 2023 in Berlin.
