For many years, JKI scientists have been presenting their research in the field of ecological farming at the BIOFACH fair at Nuremberg. In 2017, the JKI is one out of 40 stations that have been chosen for the presentation „Country of the year“, as they stand for innovation and responsibility in the field of ecological farming.  

The Julius Kühn Institute (JKI) is exhibitor at BIOFACH, “the world’s leading trade fair for organic food”, where more than 2,300 exhibitors are expected.  You will find our scientists in hall 9, at the stand of the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (booth no 351), presenting current research results and projects in the field of organic farming. This year, the spotlight is on detrimental effects of nematodes in organic farming. Other topics are the protection of stored products under the climate conditions in developing countries and insect-proof packaging.
