The 5th annual congress of the European project Quality Low Input Food QLIF will be organized in conjunction with the 3rd International Congress on Food and Nutrition held April 22 to 25, 2009 in Antalya, Turkey. It is organised by TÜBİTAK, the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, the leading agency for management, funding and conduction of research in Turkey.
The program is available at the congress homepage.
This congress will give QLIF the possibility to present findings to an audience concerned with food and nutrition but not typically involved in research on organic and low-input production systems.
The congress will become an important testing platform to evaluate how QLIF results are received in the broader scientific and industrial community.
The QLIF program will comprise summary presentations on research work carried out within the past five years on themes including consumer sciences, crop and animal husbandry and their effect on nutritional quality, organic and low-input supply chains as well as economic and environmental aspects followed by an outlook into the future.
