Participants highlighted initiatives to stimulate domestic demand and underlined the link to food security\u2014particularly through green ammonia-based fertilizers. They also presented technological projects aimed at producing sustainable fuels, such as Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) and methanol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The agenda also dedicated attention to the role of intellectual property and capacity building.
