[IECAG 2024] Present your work at the 4th International Electronic Conference on Agronomy

Dear researchers, 

We are pleased to announce that the 4th International Electronic Conference on Agronomy (IECAG 2024) is back. The conference is organized by the MDPI journal Agronomy (ISSN: 2073-4395, Impact Factor: 3.7) and will take place online between 2–5 December 2024 (Central European Summer Time).

IECAG 2024 invites researchers from academia, as well as agronomy practitioners, to contribute original findings, novel ideas, scientific concepts, new technologies, and experiences to address diversity in various fields. The conference will focus on fostering discussions related to breeding and the selection and management of farming systems, with a special emphasis on water usage and biocontrol. We encourage submissions that cover the following topics:

1. Breeding/Selection Technologies and Strategies;
2. Sustainable Soil Management and Farming Systems;
3. Resilient Horticultural Production Systems;
4. Permanent and Rotational Grassland and Weed Management;
5. Precision and Digital Agriculture;
6. Water Use and Irrigation;
7. Plant–Crop Biology and Biochemistry;
8. Biostimulation and Biocontrol Microbial-Based Strategies.

Important Dates
Deadline for abstract submission: 5th August 2024
Abstract acceptance notification: 2nd September 2024
Registration deadline: 27th November 2024

We are thrilled to announce an international conference organized by Plants (ISSN: 2223-7747) to be held in Barcelona, Spain, from 31 March through 2 April 2025. This global event, under Plants 2025: From Seeds to Food Security, is significant, bringing together plant scientists worldwide to discuss and share their latest research and findings. The world population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, just 25 years from now. This calls for a more concerted effort by scientists to increase agricultural production to feed the growing population and maintain a sustainable agroecosystem while increasing crop yields and quality. In addition, preserving waterways from contamination due to the excessive use of agrochemicals (herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers) and maintaining and increasing forest cover are essential issues. This conference addresses these topics through keynote talks and seven different sessions for presenting innovation and prospects for the future.

We will have seven main themes at this conference, where presenters can make their scientific discoveries known:

• Session 1: Plant responses to abiotic stress and climate change;
• Session 2: Plant–microbe interactions;
• Session 3: Emerging technologies in plant health;
• Session 4: Emerging technologies in plant breeding;
• Session 5: Emerging technologies in biotechnology and molecular research;
• Session 6: Seed technologies and seed enhancement;
• Session 7: Plant nutrition.

The conference organizers look forward to having experts in the field deliver keynote talks and invite other experts, postdoctoral scientists, graduate students, and anyone interested in plant research and innovation to attend this conference.

The conference will be held in Barcelona, a picturesque city where scientists from around the world can unwind and enjoy Spanish culture, food and the seaside. We, the conference chairs, look forward to welcoming you to Plants 2025.
