Open Lab Evening: Plate of the future

• What does nutrition have to do with diversity in the field?
  
• Why are small fields good for insects but bad for farmers?
  
• And who will bear the costs if agriculture is to be redesigned to be fit for the future?
  

This evening, participants can explore climate and biodiversity protection in agriculture from different perspectives. In a role-play, participants will discuss the future of agriculture in their region together.
