20th-21st March 2026Karnal, Haryana, IndiaThe GSFRED–ARCC Conference convened scientists, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to address evolving challenges across agriculture and food systems, with a focus on climate-resilient and sustainable approaches.
Driving impactful dialogue, knowledge exchange, and actionable outcomes
With rising greenhouse gas emissions, increasing climate variability, and growing pressure on natural resources, agriculture stands at a critical inflection point. Projections indicate significant temperature rise and shifts in rainfall patterns across India, directly impacting productivity, ecosystems, and livelihoods.
GSFRED 2026 was positioned to address these challenges by enabling research-led strategies for:
Strengthening agricultural systems to withstand climate variability and environmental change.
Maximizing efficiency of soil, water, and inputs through data-driven management.
Enhancing yields through regenerative, science-backed agricultural practices.
Securing food systems while preserving ecosystems and supporting resilient communities.
Focused areas shaping the future of agricultural science and sustainability
A closer look at the conversations, collaborations, and moments that defined the conference.
Setting the agenda for climate-smart and regenerative agriculture
