RAMIRAN Conference

Event Date : September 12, 2023 - September 14, 2023

Event Location : Cambridge

After two years delay, the International Recycling of Agricultural, Municipal and Industrial Residues in Agriculture Network (RAMIRAN) Conference is due to take place in Cambridge from the 12^th to the 14^th of September 2023.

Organised jointly by independent agricultural consultant ADAS, Rothamsted Research and Bangor University, the conference attracts researchers, scientists, agri-business representatives, and policymakers from across the globe, all with the shared interest to improve nutrient utilisation in agriculture.

With increased environmental regulation and pressure on food production systems to produce more with less, the conference will focus on developing strategies to minimise the environmental impact of organic materials such as livestock manures and maximise their efficiency.

The theme of the RAMIRAN Conference for 2023 is ‘managing organic resources in a changing environment’. RAMIRAN is inviting research abstracts relating to the use of organic materials, from theory to implementation and adoption by stakeholders. The Conference will also include sessions on policy and regulation, nutrient utilisation, soil quality, air and water quality, treatment and processing, and promoting best practice.

The deadline for abstract submissions is 3^rd March 2023. Abstracts can be submitted online via the RAMIRAN website www.ramiran2023.org
