Why our new strategy is important for you

Our goal: a food system fit for the future – enough healthy food for everyone, produced and consumed in environmentally and socially responsible ways. We have charted a path for achieving it in our 2024–2028 strategy, which is based on the conviction that development can only take place if several key levers are worked simultaneously, supplemented by cooperation with stakeholders who have similar goals.

Biovision uses “Sounding Soil” to sensitise the population, students, farmers and decision makers about sustainably managing soils.
