Activities

Agri-food is increasingly operating in a global market for production, processing and distribution. In addition, the importance of sustainability in relation to environmental quality in both rural and urban area, is of increasing concern. Responsive, high quality education is essential to ensure the agri-food & land industries remain innovative, sustainable and globally competitive. To secure this success, they need to draw on excellence in areas as diverse as nutrition, diet and health, chemical engineering, biomedical sciences, biochemistry, environmental planning and management and economics.
