3rd Workshop Towards Chemical Pesticide-free Agriculture

3rd Workshop Towards Chemical Pesticide-free Agriculture

29 October 2019

Helsinki

Under the Finnish presidency of the Council of the European Union, last October 23 was held in Helsinki the 3rd workshop of the initiative initiated by INRA in partnership with two German organizations (ZALF and JKI) on the vision of a agriculture without chemical pesticides.

This event followed those organized in Paris in October 2018 and in Berlin in May 2019. Nearly 70 researchers, representatives of industries, regulatory bodies, associations or interest groups came together to share their points views on this theme which will be central to the challenges of the next European Commission, in particular through the “Zero Pollution” Plan. This workshop made it possible to bring out the points of view and concerns of the community which will enrich the reflection on this ambition. Two events will soon be organized in 2020: the first in a location to be defined and the second in Germany, under the German presidency of the Council of the European Union.
