The European Association of Agricultural Economists (EAAE) is a voluntary professional association which brings together agricultural economists and others interested in the problems of the agricultural and food industries and rural development in Europe.

Our principal activities include the holding of a triennial Congress on a general theme, the organization of seminars devoted to more specific subjects as well as organising a training workshop for PhD students every two years. Together with the European Agricultural and Applied Economics Publications Foundation (EAAEP) the Association publishes the European Review of Agricultural Economics (ERAE), EuroChoices and Q Open – A Journal of Agricultural, Climate, Environmental, Food, Resource, and Rural Development.Membership of the Association provides you with the right to take part in our seminars, workshops and Congresses.
