On July the 10th, at the “Complesso Ampelion” in Alba (Italy) the second INNOSETA workshop will take place. The workshop will focus on innovation in the field of crop protection in viticulture.
The event will bring together stakeholders from different professional fields (farmers, advisors, manufacturers, policy makers…) to improve the exchange, sharing and collection of the sector’s needs in terms of innovation in the application of plant protection products.
The workshop will be organized into three working groups:
- Increase in spray quality and application accuracy,
- Drift reduction,
- Limitation of contamination during filling and washing operations of the sprayer.
After having identified the issues at stake on each of the themes, a selection of the innovations most likely to meet them will be made with the priority of identifying ways to encourage their appropriation on the ground by winegrowers. The synthesis of the workshops will be forwarded to the European authorities for the definition of new public policy priorities to address the challenges related to the application of plant protection products.
