The EU's recent announcement to fast-track the approval of biopesticides and biocontrol products is set to revolutionize farming by providing farmers with faster access to safer, greener plant protection solutions. This move is expected to cut years off the current waiting time.
Faster Access: It will provide quicker access to eco-friendly alternatives to traditional chemical pesticides.
Safer Food: The use of biopesticides can lead to safer food with lower chemical residues.
More Tools: This initiative offers more effective tools for organic and sustainable farmers.
Biodiversity Protection: It helps protect pollinators and overall biodiversity.
Biopesticides are already proving their effectiveness in the field, from controlling the olive fruit fly in Greece with Spinosad to tackling vineyard diseases in France.
