Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Pembangunan Nasional Veteran Yogyakarta, warmly welcomes you to The 3rd International Conference on Agriculture, Food, and Environment.

This conference was held on July 23, 2024. We encourage participants worldwide to discuss “Sustainable Agriculture Practices: Navigating Environmental Challenges for Global Food Security”.

As our global population continues to expand, the demand for food surges alongside it, placing unprecedented pressure on our agricultural systems. However, this growth comes at a cost to our planet, as unsustainable farming practices contribute to environmental degradation, soil erosion, water scarcity, and biodiversity loss which also affect the socio-economic aspects of farmers. The urgency to find sustainable solutions has never been more paramount.

Under the overarching theme of sustainable agriculture practices, this conference is a pivotal platform for international collaboration, knowledge exchange, and innovation. Over the course of our deliberations, we will explore multifaceted strategies aimed at harmonizing agricultural production with environmental preservation to ensure a resilient and equitable food future for generations to come.

We will examine the latest advancements in Agricultural Sciences and Engineering, Soil and Water Management, Food Science and Technology, Agricultural Environment, Ecology and Resources, Agricultural Socio-Economics and Smart Technologies in Agricultural Systems through keynote addresses, panel discussions, and research presentations. By fostering dialogue among researchers, we aspire to catalyze actionable initiatives that promote sustainable agricultural development globally.

Finally, we would like to thank our distinguished keynote speakers who shared their valuable experiences at the plenary sessions, all the presenters, all the authors, and all collaborating universities. We would also extend our best gratitude to the organizing committee, the reviewers for their kind assistance in the paper review, and all parties who have contributed their best efforts and assistance in organizing the event and ensuring its success.
