Wondering what biocontrol is all about? Let us break it down for you.
In a recent podcast with Supporting Members Consumer Choice Center, Kristen Sukalac provided an explanation of biocontrol and its importance in modern agriculture. The episode talks sheds light on the benefits of adding biocontrol to farmer toolboxes and explains why it’s crucial for sustainable agricultural practices. To learn more, listen to the podcast.
Biocontrol solutions use biological mechanisms and interactions to protect crops from pests and diseases. The suite of biocontrol solutions strengthens farmer toolboxes by offering them more choice to respond to consumer demands and the ever-evolving challenges of farming in a volatile climate.
At the Biocontrol Coalition, we’re not just advocating for sustainable agriculture; we’re fighting for a fair ground for biocontrol products in Europe. Did you know that there is no Single Market for biocontrol products in the European Union? Under the current legislation it takes between 8-10 years to place a biocontrol product in the market, which is 2-3 times longer than in Brazil or the USA. Join us in our mission to revolutionize agriculture and promote sustainable practices that benefit farmers, consumers, and the environment. Together, we can shape a brighter, more sustainable future for agriculture. Become a member now!
