Summary

Conclusions (1)
What can be solved:

What can not be solved:
- Differences between countries due to lack of active policy for local registration of Organic Inputs
Conclusions (2)
What should be considered
System effects in:
- “domino” effects in the use of other PPP”
- substitution of PPP’s
- preventing resistance
- moving organic production to geographical areas where more Inputs are allowed
Conclusions (3)
A transparent, technical and system-based evaluation of input materials, aimed at further and equal development of organic agriculture in all EU member states would be highly welcome!
