The XXVI International Grassland Congress (IGC) with the theme “100 years of grassland research – ways to the future” will be held from June 13-18, 2027 at “Kongresshalle am Zoo” Leipzig, Germany. It is 100 years since it was held for the first time in 1927, also in Leipzig. The IGC 2027 will present diverse aspects of natural grasslands managed at varying intensities, including the cultivation and use of other forage crops. Sustainable development of on-farm food production will be discussed, as well as the benefits of grassland management for society as a whole, especially for the environment and the preservation of biodiversity.​ More information on the conference can be found at https://www.internationalgrasslands.org/2027-igc/.
