An IEEP report published in June 2021 showed how biocontrol can offer a systemic and balanced solution for sustainable agriculture. In order to enable the use of biocontrol for farmers and accelerate its application, this event will be the opportunity to discuss the need to simplify biocontrol solutions and to differentiate them from other procedures in order to bring them to market safely, along with the appropriate policies.
