  • For the past twelve years it has been held at the beginning of the International Green Week in Berlin.
  • Around 2,000 international visitors from politics, industry, science and civil society discuss a central topic/theme.
  • On the last day of the conference, the world’s largest informal Conference of Agriculture Ministers takes place – a highlight of the GFFA.
  • Approximately 70 agriculture ministers from around the world as well as high-level representatives from more than ten international organizations adopt a joint political communiqué on the respective central theme.
  • High-ranking guests, such as Prince Charles, Ban Ki-moon, Angela Merkel and Josefa Sacko have in recent years contributed to GFFA with keynotes speeches.
