The ‘Semences d’Ici’ project, supported by the Walloon government as part of the Recovery Plan, aims to highlight economic development opportunities in the sector of organic seed production in Europe, especially of open-pollinated vegetables varieties.
Through interviews with seed companies and an online survey of seed producers, the project aims to identify the main risks faced by these stakeholders, as well as the risk management tools already in use or that could be implemented. The results also look at the seed market and provides a basis for building up a seed fair price framework.
The joint results of these surveys were presented and discussed during at the webinar on 31 March 2025.
This webinar was aimed at all multipliers, vegetable farmers, seed companies and other actors of the sector.
The webinar was held in French.
