The Flemish Knowledge and Research Network for Organic Food and Farming (FORK) was created in 2009 by Landwijzer, the organic training centre, BioForum, which represents the Flemish organic food and farming sector, the Coordination Centre for Applied Research and Extension on Organic Agriculture (CCBT) and the Network for Organic Food and Farming research (NOBL). FORK supports the development of the organic sector in Flanders by promoting co-creative and participative learning and research between farmers, advisors and researchers. BioForum is responsible for coordinating the Flemish farmer networks - biobedrijfsnetwerken (BBN). Guided by a facilitator and an advisor, these networks bring together farmers from different sectors to exchange knowledge and experiences, encourage greater interaction between stakeholders, and seek to develop new knowledge for the sector.
