The aim of this workshop is to engage stakeholders in a discussion about the use of biobased fertilisers and biopesticides in Irish agriculture. The workshop will feature short presentations from researchers working on testing the efficacy, environmental impact and economic feasibility of biobased products in barley growth. These researchers are part of the Department of Agriculture, Food & Marine-funded project BioCrop and the Earth Institute strategic priority SAPBio, a cross-disciplinary team of scientists working to investigate the use of and attitudes to bioproducts as alternatives to conventional inputs for crop production in Ireland through sustainable agriculture.
