IAMO strengthens partnership with Moscow research institute VIAPI

On 18 October, IAMO scientist Martin Petrick presented current IAMO research results on Russian agricultural development to a broad audience during the 21st Nikonov Symposium in Moscow, Russia.

The symposium is organised each year in Moscow by the All-Russian Institute for Agrarian Problems and Informatics (VIAPI) and is an important discussion forum for Russian agricultural economists. During the conference, Petrick was able to meet with the director of the institute and academician, Alexander V. Petrikov, to discuss future collaboration between the two research institutes. The symposium marked Petrikov’s reprisal of his role as director of the VIAPI after stepping down from his position as Deputy Minister of Agriculture of the Russian Federation in June this year. Petrikov left the VIAPI in 2007 to join the Ministry of Agriculture in Moscow. The meeting between the two academic colleagues was initiated by the German-Russian Agricultural Policy Dialogue in Moscow.
