SUMMARY:Oxford Real Farming Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:Oxford Real Farming Conference 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Oxford Real Farming Conference 2026\n\n\n\nThe UK’s agroecological and food sovereignty movement will gather once again in Oxford for its 17th annual Oxford Real Farming Conference (ORFC). The event brings together practitioners of nature-friendly farming with scientists\, activists\, policymakers and all those with a serious interest in shaping the future of food and agriculture. \n\n\n\nFrom hands-on regenerative farming techniques to deeper debates on achieving radical food system transformation\, ORFC provides a unique platform for forging alliances\, exchanging knowledge and collectively working toward a fairer food and farming system. The conference is known for uniting “mud-on-the-boots” farmers and growers with pioneering thinkers at the forefront of change. \n\n\n\nORFC in-person tickets consistently sell out\, making early booking essential. The organisers offer tiered ticketing to ensure that the event remains accessible and reflective of the diverse and radical community it represents. \n\n\n\nAcross two full days\, attendees can expect more than 145 in-person talks and interactive workshops\, including over 45 livestreamed sessions. The 2026 programme will feature leading voices from the front lines of farming\, policy specialists\, food system activists\, Indigenous knowledge-holders\, agroecological researchers and others driving innovation and advocacy in the sector. \n\n\n\nTopics explored this year will include: \n\n\n\n\nFarming to Protect Rivers\n\n\n\nInnovations in Dual Purpose Livestock\n\n\n\nCrops for a Changing Climate\n\n\n\nThe Debate on Glyphosate\n\n\n\nPlastic-Free Agriculture\n\n\n\nMigrant Landworker Rights\n\n\n\nIndigenous Wisdom and Growing Practices\n\n\n\nFinancing Agroecological Farming\n\n\n\nTackling Farming’s Mental Health Crisis\n\n\n\nCountering Corporate Power in Food Systems\n\n\n\nUnlocking Farm Surplus to Fight Hunger\n\n\n\nSolidarity with Palestinian Landworkers\n\n\n\n\nAn online ticket will provide access to more than 45 sessions livestreamed from Oxford\, while an in-person ticket allows entry to all 145+ sessions\, including recordings of the livestreamed content for later viewing. \n\n\n\nAlongside its extensive speaker programme\, ORFC will also feature social events\, live music and sustainably sourced food\, offering participants a rich and engaging experience both inside and outside the conference halls. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nIn-Person Ticket Tiers \n\n\n\n\nPay-It-Forward Ticket (£375) – For those who can afford to support underrepresented groups in the food and farming movement to attend in-person on a subsidised ticket rate\n\n\n\nSupporter Ticket (£225) – For those who want to contribute towards supporting our amazing ORFC volunteer team\n\n\n\nGeneral Ticket (£175) – For those who cannot stretch to a Supporter Ticket & are not active farmers\, growers or food producers\n\n\n\nFarmer Ticket (£135) – For all farmers\, growers\, land-workers and/or food producers\n\n\n\nSubsidised Ticket (£95) – For students; part-time\, low-waged\, or unpaid workers; new entrant farmers; and all those who would not otherwise be able to attend\n\n\n\n\nOnline Ticket Tiers \n\n\n\n\nOnline Supporter (£50.00) – For those who can afford to pay a little more to show solidarity with new entrants and low-income delegates\n\n\n\nOnline General (£35.00) – For those who cannot stretch to a Supporter Ticket & are not active farmers\, growers or food producers\n\n\n\nOnline Farmer (£25.00) – For all farmers\, growers\, land-workers and/or food producers\n\n\n\nOnline Subsidised (£15.00) – For students; part-time\, low-waged\, or unpaid workers; and new entrant farmers\n\n\n\nOnline Bursary (Free) – For all delegates from majority world countries and all who would not otherwise be able to attend\n\n\n\n\nBooking fees apply. \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nThursday 08 and Friday 09 January 2026 from 9.00am to 5.00pm \n\n\n\nGood to know: \n\n\n\nORFC friends and allies are also invited to join the return of the Listening to the Land day\, a collaborative gathering to explore how building a reciprocal relationship with nature can support radical food system transformation\, which will be held in Oxford on 07 January 2026\, one day before ORFC.
