Iberian Congress on Legumes: the foundations of agricultural and food sustainability
Description
Within the framework of the VII AEL Conference and the II RELEG Meeting, and coinciding with the celebration, on November 13, of the World Day of the Mediterranean Diet, the University of León, together with the Spanish Association of Legumes (AEL) and the Spanish Legumes Network RELEG research network, are organizing the Iberian Congress of Legumes: bases of agricultural and food sustainability , which will take place in León.
Networking for the legume sector in Spain
The main objective of this event is to bring together all the actors related to the legume sector in the Iberian Peninsula, from the world of production, packaging and commercial distribution to researchers from all areas related to these crops, including quality brands and the organisations and institutions responsible for their regulation, in order to promote synergies between participants and consolidate strategic collaboration networks in this sector.
The advances and problems, both new and persistent, will also be addressed, as well as the challenges facing the sector and the progress in scientific research on legumes. For this reason, a relevant and highly interesting topic has been proposed as the motto of the conference: “Bases of agricultural and food sustainability”.
