The International Seed Federation (ISF) is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, marking a century of exceptional contributions to the global seed sector and agriculture. Since its inception in 1924, the ISF has been a leading advocate for seed policies that promote sustainable agriculture and ensure food security on a global scale.
From small beginnings as a group of seed traders, the ISF has grown into an influential organization with members from over 70 countries. Through a strong commitment to innovation and seed quality, the federation has implemented rigorous standards in seed testing and plant breeding, transforming the industry and making high-quality seeds more accessible to farmers.
The centennial celebrations of the ISF offer a retrospective of the federation’s journey through a century of agricultural challenges and accomplishments. Events include a global conference featuring experts in biotechnology and sustainable farming practices, as well as a special publication highlighting the ISF’s contributions to agriculture.
Looking ahead to the future, the ISF remains focused on embracing cutting-edge technologies and fostering collaboration across borders. By ensuring that resilient and top-quality seed varieties reach farmers worldwide, the ISF is laying the foundation for another century of growth and prosperity in the industry.
At Seed World’s upcoming Congress, you can expect content from this event featuring experts discussing topics such as biotechnology and sustainable farming practices. Keep an eye out for Seed World’s Shawn Brook and Marcel Bruins at this exciting event!
