About IFLRC & APC 2025 Perth 2025 will be the first time the International Food Legume Research Conference has been hosted in Australia since Adelaide, 1997. It is well-established as the pre-eminent international forum for reporting scientific breakthroughs, knowledge exchange and establishment of productive global collaborations concerning every aspect of production and utilization of food legumes.

For the first time, the IFLRC will be held alongside the 5th Australian Pulse Conference (APC5).

Both APC and IFLRC meetings share an aim to bring together multiple scientific disciplines, attract researchers working on fundamental and applied aspects related to the breeding, production, processing, consumption, nutrition, and environmental/health impacts of food legumes. Importantly, they both provide networking and knowledge transfer opportunities between researchers and industry representatives and facilitate ambitious and effective international collaborations.

The combined Conference will be a three-day scientific program beginning with a Welcome Reception on the evening of Monday the 15th of September and concluding with a field day on Friday the 19th of September 2025.
