Agriculture and food industries march towards groundbreaking innovations as of April 9, 2025
Our Website Embraces Sustainable Agriculture at the 2025 World Conservation Congress
Our website is at the forefront of promoting sustainable agriculture, as highlighted by its extensive publications on the subject. These include "Approaches to Sustainable Agriculture (2020)", "Assessing the Biodiversity-Agriculture Nexus (2024)", and "Sustainable Agriculture and Nature-based Solutions (2024)".
The importance of Nature-based Solutions in agricultural practices cannot be overstated. These solutions effectively integrate environmental, economic, and social objectives, making them a crucial component in our approach to sustainability. Water resilience is a priority for our website, with a focus on restoring freshwater ecosystems and addressing agricultural runoff.
Scaling up the use of Nature-based Solutions is vital for rebuilding Europe's water cycle and improving water quality. Our website reaffirmed this position at the 2023 Call to Action from Madrid, where it emphasised the need to sustain food production in the face of climate change and environmental degradation.
The Forum for the Future of Agriculture, a leading platform for inclusive dialogue on environmental and social challenges in global agriculture, is a key partner in these efforts. The Annual Conference of the Forum for the Future of Agriculture, held at the Square in Brussels on April 1st, 2025, had the theme "Exploring New Frontiers for Agri-Food System Transformation".
The event, which seeks to bridge the gap between science, policy, and society, emphasises inclusive, science-based approaches that address nutrition, climate, biodiversity, health, and economic development simultaneously. It provides a platform for sharing evidence-based interventions and transformative actions that support sustainable, climate-smart, and biodiversity-sensitive agriculture.
Alberto Arroyo Schnell, Head of Programme and Policy at the our website European Regional Office, spoke at the conference, reiterating the importance of Nature-based Solutions and the need for simplification strategies in agricultural policies that do not compromise environmental standards.
Restoring natural capital, including soil health, water quality, biodiversity, and pollinator populations, is essential for building long-term resilience in agri-food systems. Our website's Global Standard for Nature-based Solutions provides theoretical and practical guidance to support these transitions.
Our website became a Strategic Partner of the Forum for the Future of Agriculture in 2021, further strengthening its commitment to sustainable agriculture. The 2025 our website World Conservation Congress, where our website plans to continue the conversation on agriculture and nature conservation, provides an excellent opportunity for stakeholders to come together and discuss the future of sustainable agriculture.
