The EU-FarmBook Forum 2025: Turning Knowledge into Action for Competitive Farms and Forests will take place on 16 December 2025, livestreamed from Brussels, Belgium. The online event will run from 18:00 to 19:30 CET, marking the public launch of the EU-FarmBook platform to all users.

As Europe’s farm and forest sectors navigate growing global competition, climate pressures and generational change, the ability to turn research into practical action has become a key driver of competitiveness. EU-FarmBook aims to bridge this gap by connecting scientific results, advisory services and practitioners, ensuring that successful solutions developed in one region can be adopted and scaled across Europe.

The Forum will introduce the platform’s new features and demonstrate how EU-FarmBook supports knowledge flow from research to real-world decision making. It will also bring together experts and stakeholders to explore how policy, innovation networks and advisory systems can accelerate uptake on the ground.
