Seed Production and Treatment
in a Changing Environment
24 - 25 February 2009
The Belfry Hotel, Wishaw, West Midlands, UK
Symposium
There have been major changes in arable and horticultural production over the last few years. There is now greater emphasis on the justification of crop protection management and more effective use of good husbandry techniques both for seed protection and production.
Since the third BCPC 2001 Symposium on seed health and treatment, there has been more information available on the technology of treatment, the interpretation of seed testing, the technology of seed testing and sampling of seeds and production methods which lessen the risk of pest or pathogen attack.
This Symposium will examine these developments as well as the effects of current and future legislation both in the UK and Europe.
