At Biofach 2017 the industry’s players will be focusing on organic solutions for the future from global and local perspectives in a variety of ways.
Biofach’s international patron, IFOAM – Organics International, and national supporting organisation, the German Federation of the Organic Food Industry (BÖLW) are joining forces with the trade fair to highlight this area. Biofach takes place from 15 to 18 February 2017 in Nuremburg.

The nations represented by actors at Biofach in Nuremburg, including Germany, are demonstrating how their approaches to development can be used to overcome pressing challenges – both within and outside the organic sector. Organic players are already debating what should be on the agenda of agricultural, food and trade policies, as well as what should be covered at regular inter-company round-table discussions.

Fairness and sustainability

Examples include how international trade can guarantee fairness, how value can be created along the whole of the value chain, how politics needs to create the right basic economic conditions, how costs to the environment are being borne by those causing them, which innovations will take us forward, how future generations can be involved and how farming and food industry systems really can be made sustainable.

At Biofach 2017, global organic players will present revolutionary examples of a food industry that works in harmony with resources and the global climate and is forward-looking for all people and future generations thanks to continuous innovation and responsibility. Examples that decision makers from institutions and also advisors in international cooperation can take away with them.

The main theme of the congress at Biofach 2017 will see responsibility and diversity looked at from a wide range of angles. These will include political responsibility for the development of organic agriculture, development cooperation, fair market access with regard to free trade agreements and for a sustainable economy. Social responsibility will be discussed with regard to economic participation and continuity. When diversity is being discussed, the primary focus will be ecological responsibility. The main topics here will be diversity through the prevention of power concentration and resilience through diversity or diversity as a basis for research and development with the aim being a resilient and robust food and farming industry.
