CAMPO DEMO brings together more than 120 experts in its first virtual edition

Yesterday, BIOVEGEN and AGRICOLA 2000 celebrated the “DEMO FIELD: between experimentation and dissemination” session which had the participation of more than 100 experts related to nutrition and plant health. During the meeting, the current situation of the regulation of fertilizer products, the potential of CAMPO DEMO to test innovative products and the experience of different companies in this program were shown.

CAMPO DEMO is a testing program (organized by AGRICOLA 2000, the University of Milan and AgroNotizie) that allows companies in the plant nutrition sector to evaluate their products (both commercial and prototypes) under the EPPO guidelines of the European Union, through a model defined together with the Agrarian Faculty of the University of Milan and supervised by its researchers.
