Flanders Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (EV ILVO) is an independent scientific research institute of Flanders’ Government. EV ILVO’s task is to generate knowledge for more sustainability in the agriculture, fisheries and agri-food sectors.
Starting from a strong anchor in Flanders, their work extends throughout Belgium, Europe and the rest of the world. The mission of EV ILVO is clear and remarkably contemporary: to build knowledge that will make it possible to produce enough healthy and varied food for the 10 billion people that the world will need to feed while staying within our planetary limits.
