Challenges and opportunities of the ‘durum wheat-pasta’ supply chain at the From Seed To Pasta V
From 24 to 27 September 2025, the international conference ‘From Seed To Pasta V’ (A Sustainable Durum Wheat Chain for Food Security and Healthy Lives) will take place in Bari, Italy.
The conference, now in its fifth edition and conceived, as a series, in 2008 by Professor Roberto Tuberosa, is an important worldwide appointment for researchers as well as for operators in the cereal sector to discuss the main innovations in genetic research and not only in the durum wheat-pasta chain.
The main objective of FSTP5 is to present the results of international research with a multidisciplinary approach to meet the current and future challenges facing the durum wheat-pasta supply chain, with particular reference to climate change issues.
The conference comes at a very important historical moment for the University of Bari Aldo Moro, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary, and even more so for the Department of Soil, Plant and Food Sciences (Di.S.P.A.), which has behind it a history of almost 90 years (until 2012 as the ‘Faculty of Agriculture’) in the last of which it has evolved considerably and achieved high levels of qualification that have allowed it in 2023 to be recognised by ANVUR as a ‘Department of Excellence’ for the quality of its research, scientific planning and teaching.
