Festival of Stewardship 2025

How does agriculture sustain the world’s population in the face of multiple global challenges? What support do farmers need and how can this be provided in an effective manner? Stewardship programs help by offering farmers practical advice on managing their land, inputs, and outputs more effectively. But delivering these services to millions of farmers – and making a real, lasting impact – is no easy task.

Our conference – CropLife International’s Festival of Stewardship 2025 – will look at the key challenges, highlight innovative solutions, and share success stories. We’ll hear different perspectives and insights, including from the farmers themselves.

The theme for this year’s virtual event – "Harvesting Impact" – will spotlight how Stewardship supports the responsible use of innovation to meet productivity, climate, and environmental goals at scale. Together, we’ll explore key areas including risk management, capacity development, and scalable partnerships, with fresh insights and experiences from across the global agricultural community.

From farmer stories to expert panels, we'll discuss how collaboration across sectors is helping farmers overcome today’s toughest challenges – while protecting crops, building trust, and shaping sustainable systems for 2030 and beyond.

Join us on Tuesday, 15 July (from 13:00 to 15:00 CET) – whether you're a policymaker, a scientist, or just agri-curious, there's a seat at the table for you!
