About us
Food agriculture and forestry are of great importance for climate protection and other key sustainability goals at the national and international levels. The necessary knowledge on how to achieve these goals is largely available. However current agricultural forestry and food policies in Germany and the EU are not sufficiently oriented towards reaching these goals. The newly founded Agora Agriculture wants to change that.
