- Solution4Farming Workshop in the International Conference “Agriculture for Life, Life for Agriculture”
On the 2nd of June 2022, a workshop about Solution4Farming project was organized in the International Conference “Agriculture for Life, Life for Agriculture” at University of Agronomic Sciences and Veterinary Medicine in Bucharest, Romania.
As the first agricultural school established in 1852, our university has responded to the exigencies of professional training for the development of Romanian agriculture, despite times of hardship. Last year’s conference stands proof that our university remains a standard of certainty in a world full of unknown. Unlike most events from the previous year, that have been either postponed or canceled altogether, “Agriculture for Life, Life for Agriculture” was moved into the online environment. With a one of kind platform and discussion space, authors have been given the possibility to present their articles and also network during the two conference days. Moreover, both the articles and plenary sessions are still accessible to everyone with a registered account, free of charge on the 2022 A4LIFE Conference Website. The articles published after the conference are also available, free of charge, here: http://agricultureforlife.usamv.ro/index.php/publications.
