Urban agriculture folks! Do you agree with the takeaways from the RUAF-EFUA expert meeting on how to strengthen EU policies to support food growing in and around cities? What would you add to the key take-aways? Comment away...
On 28th November 2023, the European Forum on Urban Agriculture (EFUA) and RUAF hosted an online expert meeting for the representatives of five cities, strategically selected for their innovative urban agriculture policies, to share details of policy instruments to enable food growing, and to learn from each other’s experiences – both positive and challenging. The aim was to draw lessons on how to strengthen EU policies on urban agriculture from countries with a long tradition of producing food in urban areas, while also build the foundations of city-to-city relationships for mutual exchange and learning.

🎉 Already 10 years and counting, I work for IBMA - International Biocontrol Manufacturers Association to make the voice of the Biocontrol industry stronger and stronger. For more biocontrol solutions for farmers as soon as possible, for a sustainable resilient and productive agriculture. Challenges are clear, we need to continue to work on them together to make more products available on the market via a proportionate regulatory framework. The future is biocontrol and that is why IBMA also brings people ''boots-on-the-ground'' for them to see it and listen to farmers' unvaluable experiences. #biocontrol #biocontrolmatters #workingwithnature
🌱 In his hearing Christophe Hansen, Commissioner-designate for Agriculture and Food, said he wants to be a “boots-on-the-ground” commissioner, and ”use every opportunity to visit farms and farmers in Member States.” 👩🌾 We therefore invite him to join us on our field trip in 2025 to hear from farmers using biocontrol. 🎞️ This clip from a soon-to be released short film is a snapshot of our 2024 field trip in Belgium and the Netherlands.

A year-by-year comparison of a lice-simulation 🦠 Seasonal changes play a big role in the aquaculture industry, influencing everything from fish health to the spread of sea lice. But how do these changes impact your specific location? At Oceanbox, we’ve built a 2.5-year archive of ocean data, allowing you to dive deeper into the unique conditions around your sites. With this data and our tool, you can run your own simulations and generate statistics to uncover patterns and gain valuable insights into how currents, temperature, and lice spread affect your operations. Check out our latest video comparing lice spread from July 1–7 in 2022 and 2023 to see how ocean conditions can vary from year to year. 💥
