The meeting offers the unique opportunity to reconcile basic and applied research in the fields of plant biochemistry, soil, and environmental sciences with a wide-spectrum approach of integration and collaboration to propose new solutions to the problems raised by modern agriculture. The scientific programme is structured in three sessions that cover the issues related to the soil/plant/environment system following a transversal, multidisciplinary and integrative approach, with the point of view and heritage of senior keynote speakers who have contributed to the scientific and cultural development of our society. Younger researchers will bring their contribution aimed at constructively feeding the scientific debate to propose real solutions to concrete problems. With these aims, “UNIFY” proposes to amalgamate the three main research fields that have distinguished our Society through a generational harmonization, both essential aspects of a modern research in agriculture.
