The Department of Agricultural Microbiology, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Gadjah Mada, once again held an international guest lecture featuring a distinguished speaker, Prof. Dr. Hiroyuki Ohta, President of Ibaraki University, Japan. He delivered a lecture titled “Microbial Ecology and Plant-Microbe Interactions: Innovation for Sustainable Agriculture and Environmental Restoration.” The event took place on Thursday, February 20, 2025, from 09:00 to 11:00 AM (WIB) at the Venture Room, AGLC (Agrotopica Learning Center), Faculty of Agriculture, UGM.

In his lecture, Prof. Ohta presented the latest research and developments in microbial ecology and plant-microbe interactions, highlighting their critical role in enhancing agricultural productivity without harming the environment. He emphasized that the strategic use of microorganisms can offer innovative solutions to modern agricultural challenges such as land degradation, dependence on chemical fertilizers, and climate change.

“A deep understanding of the soil microbiome and its interaction with plant roots paves the way for more eco-friendly, efficient, and sustainable agricultural technologies,” stated Prof. Ohta during his presentation.

The event was attended by faculty members and students of the Agricultural Microbiology Study Program, along with researchers from various disciplines interested in ecological agriculture and microbial biotechnology. Participant enthusiasm was evident through the large number of questions raised during the session.

This guest lecture also served to strengthen academic ties between Universitas Gadjah Mada and Ibaraki University, opening opportunities for international collaboration in education and research focused on sustainable agriculture. By hosting this event, the Department of Agricultural Microbiology at UGM once again demonstrated its active role in providing global and innovative insights to both students and faculty, in support of a science-based transformation of sustainable agriculture.

This initiative also reflects the Faculty of Agriculture’s ongoing commitment to supporting global goals, including SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being, SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy, SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, SDG 15: Life on Land, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals.
