Dear Sir/Madam,

The World Soybean Research Conference 11 fully supports all public measures to protect the health and welfare of the people and to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. The health and well-being of our delegates, partners, exhibitors and staff have been, and will always be, the major priority.

The Organising and Continue Committees of the WSRC11 have been closely monitoring the situation and further discussions have taken place with our plenary speakers and session moderators to determine the best option for you and the global soybean community. Taking into account that the WSRC11 gathers over 1000 delegates worldwide and the recent developments on the rapid spread of COVID-19 in many countries in the world, we have made the decision to postpone the World Soybean Research Conference 11 in Novi Sad, Serbia. The new conference date is 5-10 September 2021.

We will continue with all activities, preparing session lectures, submitting abstracts, registrations, so that this conference meets all your expectations. If you have already registered at the WSRC11, your registration is still valid. Also, all submitted abstracts will be included in the abstract book, after the peer-review. If you booked travel and accommodation through our platform, our technical organizer Panacomp (info@wsrc11.com) agency will support you. However due to the circumstances, it may take some time, and thank you for your patience.

It is our responsibility to inform you in a timely and proactive manner of all decisions made by the Organizing and Continue Committees of the WSRC11.

The expanding outbreak in Europe and in other regions of the World made us feel we should take responsibility and make this decision.

Stay safe,

Kind regards,

WSRC11 organizing committee

Welcome

Dear colleagues and guests,

On behalf of the Local Organizing Committee and the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops, Novi Sad, the hosting institution, I feel truly honored and privileged to invite you to the 11^th World Soybean Research Conference (WSRC11). The conference will take place from 5-10 September 2021, in Novi Sad, Serbia, one of the central hubs of economy, education, culture and science in the region of Southeast Europe. The opportunity to host this important scientific event for the first time in Europe, in the city of Novi Sad, is a special honor and a much-appreciated acknowledgement of the enhanced international cooperation fostered by the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops.

The Local Organizing Committee and the Scientific Committee devote their efforts toward creating a stimulating scientific, social and cultural experience for all our conference attendees. Our intention is to encourage the global soybean community, including the leading academic and industry experts, stakeholders and students, to interact and initiate discussions and debates, aiming to give answers and raise new questions. The soybean community can successfully overcome the current and future challenges only if we change and broaden our perspective. We welcome all of you to participate in the conference and invite you to contribute to the program, with sincere hopes that it will be a week full of intellectual excitement and memorable moments.

I invite you to enjoy and experience both our Scientific Program and the traditional Serbian hospitality. At the crossroads between East and West, South and North, you will find open hearts and minds, natural beauty, vibrant night life, cultural events, and gastronomic magic of the Balkan cuisine.

I warmly welcome you to Novi Sad and hope you will join us at WSRC11 in September 2021.
