Europatat Congress 2023 – Speakers

 

Today the European potato sector is faced with many challenges related not only to high energy prices, climate change, increased regulatory requirements and trade barriers, but also to consumption trends such as local food, organic, vegan, etc.

Under the title “The Changing Geopolitical Landscape and the Future for Potato Trade”, the first time ever Polish edition of the Europatat Congress will focus on the impact of current geopolitics for international agri-food trade and on the effect of EU’s Green Deal’s goals and new consumption trends for the potato sector inside and outside Europe.
