On 11\/12\/2024, the Institute of Agriculture \u2013 Skopje organized a scientific conference INNOVATIONS IN SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE \u2013 BRIDGING SCIENCE AND PRACTICE in the educational center M6 where we hosted a large number of domestic and international academic guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The event was opened by prof. Viktor Gjamovski, PhD who in his opening address emphasized that agriculture is the pillar of our economy and the lifeblood of our society. Yet, it is an industry under immense pressure. Climate variability, soil degradation, and water scarcity re reshaping the way we grow our food and manage our resources. For our farmers and stakeholders, these challenges are not theoretical; they are real, immediate, and deeply felt. Our role as an institute, and as a community of researchers and practitioners, is to provide solutions that are not only innovative but also practical and sustainable. Moreover, we must also ensure that these resources are used effectively, fostering collaboration between academic institutions, policymakers, and industry stakeholders. Together, we can create a resilient agricultural system that adapts to change and thrives in the face of adversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A welcoming address has prof. Biljana Angelova, PhD, Rector of the Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje. She emphasized that it is vital to acknowledge that innovation does not exist in isolation. It flourishes when we create environments that encourage curiosity and creativity. Universities like ours must continue to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, empowering the next generation of thinkers and doers to confront global challenges with bold, fresh perspectives. This is the essence of bridging science and practice\u2014ensuring that our discoveries serve as practical tools to uplift and transform our societies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
