DESCRIPTION:On behalf of Euroseeds\, HFFA Research and ANSEME\, we are glad
  to invite you to the online study launch 'How innovation in plant breedin
 g boosts sustainable farming in the EU' on Monday 17th May from 11:00 – 13
 :00 CEST.The Farm to Fork strategy as well as the Biodiversity strategy of
  the EU are putting forward highly ambitious objectives in respect of more
  sustainable agriculture and food systems.Many believe that they can only 
 be addressed successfully with a broad modernisation of agricultural produ
 ction\, including access to the best possible seed resulting from advanced
  plant breeding methods such as gene editing. Clearly\, such a discussion 
 needs to be supported by the most recent factual data of highest quality. 
 Euroseeds has therefore commissioned a specific study on the impact of Eur
 opean plant breeding in terms of the economy and the environment. Most imp
 ortantly\, the study will provide an ex-ante assessment\, looking forward 
 and seeking to analyse potential effects until 2030 and 2040 in light of t
 he EU’s Farm to Fork and Biodiversity strategies.\nSpeakers:\nIntroduction
