On June 2nd, an event will take place in the framework of the EIP-AGRI initiative organised by PRE-HLB partners. This event will be attended by different relevant entities in the field of plant health and regional governments to discuss the contingency plan and the early warning procedure to prevent the vectors and the spread of HLB.

This event aims to include the participation of entities that situate the operational context in California and Portugal in order to serve as a reference for current events in the rest of Europe.

The event will include the participation of the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, which will address Spanish policy in Brussels, and the Generalitat Valenciana, which will cover the plant health approach. In addition, the views of COPA-COGECA, representing farmers in Europe, and CropLife Europe, representing the European agricultural industry, will be included. Finally, there will be an open discussion forum with the entities and organisations participating in the event, which will be led by AVA-ASAJA.

The event will be held completely online, in English and the registration to the event can be found in this link or by clicking the agenda below.
