The webinar aims to catalyze positive change in organic horticulture, in line with EU regulations and the European Green Deal's target for organic farming by 2030. It highlights fostering environmentally sustainable agriculture by studying and promoting the synergistic benefits of hybrid biological preparations in organic horticulture, with a focus on improving plant response and addressing challenges in pest control. It will be necessary to promote the definition and use of specific hybrid biological preparations, which combine a biostimulant based on hydrolyzed plant proteins and a microbial-based biopesticide, which can offer synergistic benefits in organic horticulture. The overall objective is to improve plant response, combat pests, and achieve increased yields in an environmentally sustainable and resource-efficient manner.
