On 15th-16th November, the 2018 UK Organic Congress took place in Rugby, UK, close to Ryton Organic Gardens, the home of Organic-PLUS’s lead, the Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resiliance (CAWR). As well as researchers from CAWR, the conference was attended by other UK partners the Organic Research Centre, Soil Association and Royal Horticultural Society.
The conference attracts a wide range of delegates including farmers, researchers and retailers, so we took the opportunity to speak to people and collect their views on contentious inputs such as copper fungicides, peat and plastic mulches as well as the potential alternatives.
