Summit Agenda –

Day 1: themed Converge & Collaborate, will feature the inaugural session, a policy dialogue on the proposal for One Nation, One License to address regulatory challenges, a farmer recognition program, and a roundtable discussion on integrating micronutrients and biologicals into fertiliser policy.
