More than 500 guests from business, science and politics are anticipated to attend the sixth international conference "Large Farm Management 2015" in Kiev, Ukraine. The event will take place from 16th to 18th September 2015. In the CIS countries (Commonwealth of Independent States) and Europe it is regarded as one of the leading conferences in the field of agribusiness management. Experts from all over the world will exchange ideas over the course in several lectures, sessions and panel discussions dealing mainly with efficiency-enhancing measures in agricultural production.

The first day of the conference, called "Scientific Day" will address issues such as increasing agricultural production, financial performance, innovative technologies and on-farm security systems. This is also intended, in particular, to provide young scientists with an opportunity to present their research results and to discuss them with the audience. IAMO director Professor Alfons Balmann, as a member of the Scientific Committee of the conference will open the second day together with Dr. Alex Lissitsa, President of the Ukrainian Agribusiness Club (UCAB), and Antoine Rebillard, Business Director of NEW HOLLAND Agriculture. This is the "Business Day" which will focus on the economic challenges facing large agricultural companies.
