To achieve our goal of a more sustainable future, we need to be able to bring new solutions to European growers- and an efficient regulatory process is at the heart of this!
🌱 The EU’s Biocontrol Bottleneck: A Call for Urgent Regulatory Reform The Biocontrol Coalition is excited to share our perspective, featured in Euractiv! In this article, we highlight the critical need for a streamlined regulatory framework to improve EU farmers' access to biocontrol solutions. Nearly two decades after the REBECA project first flagged Europe’s limited market presence for biocontrol products, EU farmers still face long approval times, hindering their ability to adopt sustainable plant protection methods. 💡 Curious about how updated biocontrol regulations can support both environmental goals and farm productivity? ✒ Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/eWMqEmPC ✒ Join the Biocontrol Coalition: https://lnkd.in/eP8Eajyg #BiocontrolCoalition #SustainableAgriculture #Biocontrol #Innovation #FutureOfFarming #EU
