Summary

Conclusions (1)
What can be solved:
- Possibly quicker
- More transparent, technical and objective evaluation that allows for development
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
