Turning Knowledge into Action for Competitive Farms and Forests: EU-FarmBook Forum 2025

We, the EUFRAS team, are truly delighted to be part of the EU-FarmBook community. We are active project partners and are therefore even more excited to share the project news and achievements! On this occasion, we would like to inform you about the EU-FarmBook Forum 2025: Turning Knowledge into Action for Competitive Farms and Forests, taking place on 16 December 2025 at Sparks Belgium (Rue Ravenstein 60, 1000 Bruxelles), from 17:30–21:30 CET. The EU-FarmBook Forum 2025 marks the public launch of the platform to rural advisory community and all AKIS actors!

Online registration: Webinar Registration - Zoom

As the European agricultural and forest economy faces global competition, climate pressure and generational change, competitiveness now depends on how quickly good ideas become everyday practice.

The goal is simple: shorten the distance from research to advice to decisions on real farms and in real forests, so that what works in one place can be adopted and scaled across Europe.

This transformation starts with the EU-FarmBook forum, linking policy, advisory services and practice to accelerate impact on the ground.

Here you can find Agenda Highlights:

18:00–18:30 – EU-FarmBook in Practice: Moving Knowledge into Fields and Forests

Presentation of EU-FarmBook and new key features, showing how the platform connects research and practice.

18:30–19:25 – Panel Discussion and Q&A: Competitiveness Through Knowledge

A panel discussion with key stakeholders, focusing on:

• Accelerating uptake through AKIS and CAP networks

• Measuring adoption and impact (productivity, resilience, sustainability)

• Ensuring young farmers and foresters can access and apply knowledge

• Making cross-border scaling routine rather than exceptional

19:25–19:30 – Closing Remarks
