The Order of Agronomists guarantees training credits to the Festival

The Order of Agronomists and Forest Doctors of Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta supports the Festival of Food Journalism to consolidate a collaboration between professionals of the agri-food sector and the world of information. The synergistic collaboration is also realized in training activity, as almost all the panels in the program of the Festival guarantee credits for the professional updating of the members of the Order of Agronomists

"Two years have passed, it was the September 15 2015, from the presentation at Expo of the Universal Charter of the Agronomist, a guiding text on the future of food - intervenes Claudia Costa, president of the Agronomy Doctors of the Province of Asti - We would have to discuss the difference between food and food, between food and nutrition. We leave these sophisms to those who "feed" them. The fact is that at the base of agricultural production, in a privileged place, we design the good of the world alongside farmers and breeders. Our professional figure is here, where ambition would lead us to a real, pragmatic change in the way we see agriculture. The agronomist moves along the supply chain, guarantees the origin and the sustainability in the defense from harmful organisms, the hygienic and sanitary safety in the agri-food industry and that of our farms, the preservation of the rural environment through an ethical and cultured vision of technology, innovation and tradition ".
The president concludes: «In this context of communication and media exchanges we express the hope that the Festival of Food Journalism of Turin will become an opportunity and a pleasant opportunity for exchange on food themes, of the land and rural places as man's sacred rights, and that the figure of the agronomist is considered by the journalist a reliable and always available source of information ".
