Crop Production Ecology Monthly Seminar Series
We provide a free and online platform for scientific debate about agricultural production and sustainability between academics, stakeholders, and the general public.

Join us monthly for inspiring online talks !
Spring 2023 seminars are usually held the 2nd Thursday of the month at 15:00-16:30 on Zoom.
We feature research on broad topics related to crop production and sustainability with multiple short presentations by invited local and international researchers or practitioners, followed by a Q&A session and open discussion.
Please view seminar details in the schedule links
- The 15th of February (note: Wednesday instead of Thursday) we will hear
Jos Raaijmakers, professor in microbioal ecology at NIOO-KNAW and Leiden University (NL), and Ahmed Abdelfattah, group leader at Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering and Bioeconomy (DE) talk about Crop domestication shaping microbiomes.
