On 30 November and 1 December, the Organic Innovation Days 2021 entitled “Better inputs for organic agriculture” took place online. This public event was organised in collaboration with the two Horizon 2020- funded EU projects RELACS and Organic-PLUS. Both projects aim to reduce the use of controversial inputs in organic farming. About 140 participants gathered and actively engaged, participating in the intense discussions, exchanging views on the various alternatives to controversial inputs in organic farming and strategies to minimise their use, as well as the socio-economic aspects involved.
