Sustainable Farming Special Interest Group (SIG)
Date: Tuesday 14 July (10:00 – 16:00)
Venue: Rothamsted Research, Harpenden
To celebrate the new expanded Sustainable Farming SIG, this event brings together sustainable agriculture and forestry with pollination and parasitoids, under the theme ‘co-benefits and trade-offs’. Join us to explore the different needs of insects in a productive landscape, and how to apply entomology towards systems that work for both society and nature.
Registration will open shortly towards the bottom of this page and details of keynote speakers will be confirmed in due course.
