Within the framework of the Global Forum for Food and Agriculture (GFFA), IAMO in cooperation with the German Agribusiness Alliance (GAA) organises a panel discussion entitled “Bioeconomy and global food security - Challenges seen in an international perspective” on 17 January 2025 in Berlin, Germany.
Export routes under fire, demographics under pressure, climate change and shortage of skilled labour are clearly noticeable: The challenges for agricultural production are growing internationally from year to year. This makes it all the more important for enterprises, which produce sustainably and innovatively, preserve resources and contribute to global food security in a circular manner, to take efficient and responsible action. Bioeconomic principles can enhance efficiency and lower cost pressure in a special way – and thus strengthen the resilience and predictability of one’s own economic base.
The following issues are of key importance in these times of ever-changing and perpetuating crises: What experiences are producers and policy-makers gaining internationally when applying bioeconomic principles? What role do state-of-the-art technologies play in this regard today and tomorrow? And how can this economic approach become more widespread in the future?
These questions will be discussed during a panel discussion using the example of a central player in global agricultural production, the region of Eastern Europe/Central Asia, with high-level participation from Ukraine and Kazakhstan.

About IAMO
The Leibniz Institute of Agricultural Development in Transition Economies (IAMO) analyses economic, social and political processes of change in the agricultural and food sector, and in rural areas. The geographic focus covers the enlarging EU, transition regions of Central, Eastern and South Eastern Europe, as well as Central and Eastern Asia. IAMO works to enhance the understanding of institutional, structural and technological changes. Moreover, IAMO studies the resulting impacts on the agricultural and food sector as well as the living conditions of rural populations. The outcomes of our work are used to derive and analyse strategies and options for enterprises, agricultural markets and politics. Since its founding in 1994, IAMO has been part of the Leibniz Association, a German community of independent research institutes.
