Rules governing the production and marketing of plant reproductive material of organic heterogeneous material
Food safety
Organic agriculture faces more variable conditions than conventional agriculture, which can rely on mineral fertiliser & plant protection products. Cultivating genetically diverse plants, which cannot be characterised as distinct, uniform and stable varieties, can increase the resilience of organic agriculture to biotic/abiotic stresses. The proposed act aims to develop rules for the production and marketing of seeds of such diverse material (“heterogeneous material”) for organic cultivation
