Due to globalisation, organic agriculture is increasingly affected by the growing discrepancy between local and global production and forced to strike a balance between traditional and modern agricultural methods. Furthermore, the development of organic farming is also challenged by growing internationalisation. Consequently, some traditional approaches of organic agriculture need to be reconsidered. Therefore, the 9th German Scientific Conference on Organic Agriculture 2007 will focus especially on the following topics:

The German Scientific Conference is the most important conference among German-speaking countries which enables the discussion and presentation of current scientific research concerning organic agriculture. As in previous years, the conference offers its participants the opportunity of giving presentations on current research in the following areas:

The conference provides different forms of presentation: workshops, oral presentations and posters. More information concerning submissions you can find here. The conference language is German. In addition, the 9th German Scientific Conference will hold sessions in English for the first time, since many foreign students and researchers are working at the University of Hohenheim due to the new study programme on Organic Food Chain Management and the university’s emphasis on international research.
