Abstract
International Scientific Conference “Fundamental and Applied Scientific Research in the Development of Agriculture in the Far East” (AFE-2021) was successfully held on June 21 - 22, 2021 by Federal Scientific Center of Agricultural Biotechnology of the Far East named after A.K. Chaika, Far Eastern State Agrarian University, and Northern Trans-Ural State Agricultural University.
Due to the difficult pandemic (COVID-19) situation around the world, the conference was held in two formats: physically at Federal Scientific Center of Agricultural Biotechnology of the Far East named after A.K. Chaika and in the format of videoconference. The organizers took into account all the necessary requirements for holding an event in a pandemic: separate entrances and exits for the exhibition and conference rooms were equipped with barrier tapes and signs; sessions were shortened to allow for airing and sanitizing of potential contact surfaces; there were no catering or coffee breaks; and all conference participants and guests were provided with medical masks. For virtual involvement, several social network possibilities were available, as well as video conferencing with all interested participants. Contributors and listeners delivered reports and discussed subjects using digital technology, namely the TeamLink software suite.
The conference agenda comprised a plenary session as well as other subject sessions: Biodiversity, Environmental Health, Environmental Management, Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, Freshwater and Marine Ecology, Industrial ecology, Food Science and Technology, Crop Production, Livestock Farming Technology, Sustainable Aquaculture, Sustainable Agricultural Mechanization, Sustainable Agriculture, Sustainable Forest Management, Green Economics, Integrating Socioeconomics and Ecology, Creating Sustainable Cities, Energy, Waste management, Land Use, Geodesy and Cadastre, Geology and Geophysics, Glaciology, Hydrology and Water Resources, Soil Science, etc.
