The 2025 International Conference on Agriculture and Resource Economy (ICARE 2025) was held virtually from January 17 to 19, 2025, in Harbin, China. This event aimed to serve as an all-encompassing platform for researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers to share their most recent discoveries in the fields of agriculture and resource economics. By fostering a collaborative environment, ICARE 2025 sought to address pressing challenges and explore innovative solutions at the intersection of agricultural productivity, resource management, and sustainable development.

In an era of increasing global demand for food and natural resources, the integration of advanced technologies and sustainable practices in agriculture and resource management has become crucial. ICARE 2025 was designed to bridge the gap between theoretical research and practical applications, promoting interdisciplinary dialogue and knowledge exchange. The conference covered a wide range of topics, including agricultural productivity and technology, agricultural market analysis, natural resource management, and energy economics. These themes were chosen to reflect the current trends and future directions in the field, emphasizing the need for innovative approaches to address global challenges.

The conference was attended by about 50 participants of agricultural community across the world, such as academia, industries, and governments. It featured several distinguished keynote speakers who shared their expertise and insights on cutting-edge research and practical applications. Notable speakers included:

Prof. Xinyong Li from Dalian University of Technology, who presented on the catalytic conversion characteristics of biomass and other molecules for resource utilization in agricultural environments.

Prof. Hossain M. Zabed from Guangzhou University, who discussed engineering microbial chassis for the biological valorization of agricultural residues into high-value chemicals.

Prof. Baoyou Liu from Hebei University of Science and Technology, focusing on the resource utilization of agricultural waste.

Assoc. Prof. Rongkui Su from Central South University of Forestry and Technology, who addressed ecological restoration technologies for nonferrous metal tailings sites in central south area.

The ICARE 2025 conference proceedings stand as a landmark contribution to the ongoing dialogue between academia and industry in the realms of agriculture and resource economics. Each submitted paper was meticulously evaluated through a stringent peer-review process, thereby upholding the highest academic standards and ensuring the relevance of the research presented.

To all participants, we hope that the knowledge shared and connections forged at ICARE 2025 will serve as a catalyst for further research and practical applications in the fields of agriculture and resource economics. We look forward to continued collaboration and progress as we work together to address the pressing global challenges of our time.
