The opening event marks the official start of the GFFA with an exchange between renowned experts in global bioeconomics from politics, business, science and civil society on the guiding theme ‘Farming a sustainable bioeconomy’.
It provides a high-level introduction to the topic, outlines its many aspects and thus paves the way for the various discussions at the GFFA.
The High Level Panels will provide an in-depth insight into the bioeconomy. At these panels, agriculture ministers will present their perspectives on the global bioeconomy from various points of view, e.g. the sustainable production and use of biomass, the promotion of innovation and the design of fair framework conditions. One of the three High Level Panels will again be jointly organised by the Munich Security Conference (MSC) and the BMEL.
The GFFA expert panels will once again provide a platform for intensive expert dialogue between international participants from politics, science, business and civil society.
This year, the expert panels will again be organised by leading stakeholders from these sectors. The aim is to jointly develop and bundle important findings and opinions on the current topic of the GFFA in order to make a valuable contribution to future discussions on the subject matter.
The GFFA Innovation Forum will once again offer an exciting exhibition format at the next GFFA, presenting innovative projects, practical examples and new solutions related to the GFFA’s main topic.
Numerous scientific institutions, NGOs, companies, including start-ups, authorities and associations will present their latest innovations and activities.
A total of 25 exhibitors are expected to present their creative approaches and forward-looking ideas.
This year, four exciting and entertaining science slam lectures, each lasting ten minutes and in English, will once again be presented live in Berlin under the new theme ‘Shaping a sustainable bioeconomy’.
These talks offer an entertaining insight into innovative scientific topics and invite the audience to join in the excitement. After the slam presentations, the international audience, both on site and online, will vote on who will receive the GFFA Science Slam trophy in 2025.

At the upcoming International Young Farmers‘ Forum, more than 20 young farmers from all continents will come together in Berlin.
They actively contribute their valuable experiences from their own farms or their work in national farmers’ organisations to the discussions at the GFFA.
As the future shapers of the global food supply, they will play a central role in the development of sustainable solutions. The Young Farmers‘ Forum and the GFFA will therefore once again offer them the opportunity to make themselves heard at the international level.
Two representatives of the group will present the jointly developed declaration on “Shaping a sustainable bioeconomy” at the Agriculture Ministers’ Conference and address political demands to international policymakers.
