- International Conference iCROP2026
We are (co-)organizing the upcoming iCROPM2026, scheduled for 2-4 February 2026, in Florence (Italy). The symposium will have five main thematic sessions, which will bring together scientists from all continents to discuss the latest advances in crop models and their applications under the theme "Crop modelling for Agriculture and Food Security under Global Change".
Rationale and Scope: Crop modelling has been a cornerstone of agricultural research and decision-making for decades. As global challenges such as climate change, resource degradation, loss of biodiversity, and food security intensify, the need for more advanced, integrated, and adaptable crop models becomes more critical. iCROPM2026 aims to bring together the international research community to discuss recent advancements, foster collaboration, and chart the future of crop modelling. The symposium will focus on scientific breakthroughs, technological innovations, and interdisciplinary approaches to enhance the accuracy, applicability, and impact of crop models in addressing global agricultural challenges.
