Take part in ÖMKi’s survey on “Policy tools and initiatives for the reduction of contentious inputs in organic farming” in the framework of the RELACS project before 19 March

Are you an organic farmer, plant protection or animal welfare expert? Or are you working for an organisation focusing on these topics?

Then take part in the “Policy tools and initiatives for the reduction of contentious inputs in organic farming” survey to provide detailed information on policy initiatives to reduce the use of contentious inputs in your country, or any international initiatives that you may know of. It takes approximatively 10-20 minutes to complete and will be open until 19 March 2021.

This survey was prepared by the Hungarian Research Institute of Organic (ÖMKi) in the framework of the RELACS project. It aims at collecting past and contemporary public and private initiatives for the reduction of contentious inputs in organic farming in the RELACS partner countries and beyond.

Based on the results, an inventory of available international, national and regional policy instruments,such as incentivization, taxation, support for advisory services, or prohibition will be compiled and published as a guiding document for policy-makers.

RELACS seeks to promote the development and adoption of environmentally safe and economically viable tools and technologies to reduce the use of external inputs in organic farming systems. IFOAM Organics Europe is responsible for the communication and dissemination of project results as well as the coordination of the science-practice-policy dialogue.
