Food Revolution 2026 Conference
May 11 – May 13
Mestre, Italy
From May 11–13, 2026, researchers, industry partners, and changemakers will gather at Venice-Mestre, Italy to explore groundbreaking innovations and forge lasting partnerships that will revolutionize how we produce, distribute, and consume food globally.
SPIN-FERT is part of the Food Revolution 2026 conference in Mestre (Italy) with Loredana Canfora (CREA) as invited speaker on the topic: Microbial inoculant success in soil: the importance of tracking inoculative species.
As a molecular biologist and biotechnologist in the field of soil microbial ecology Loredana Canfora is involved in the study of soil biodiversity, microbial ecology, integrated pest management, evaluation of impact on soil microbial community, and assessment of a new tool for the detection of bio-inoculants in soil.
Presentation:
Microbial inoculant success in soil: the importance of tracking inoculative species
Key Points:
• Are we truly certain the bioinoculant has established itself?
• Monitoring the persistence of inoculated species in soil is essential to understand their efficacy, optimise formulations, and ensure safe and effective use.
• Innovative approaches are replacing conventional offerings with faster, more accurate tools.
• Innovative molecular tools enable rapid, precise, and cost-effective monitoring of microbial inoculants.
• Hope or horizon? Aptamers-based tool in the monitoring of Bacillus subtilis in the field.
