Résumé anglais
With this publication we continue a biennial tradition. For the fifth time, we
have gathered relevant information on research related to organic food and
farming in Flanders. This overview shines a light on the research projects
and results from 2017 and 2018.
Knowledge creation and dissemination is very important in the development
of the organic sector. In the new Strategic Plan for Organic Agriculture 2018-
2022, knowledge development and dissemination got a more prominent
place and the government promised to further boost research for organic
agriculture and food. This makes us very hopeful! For optimal use of the
available resources, we want to continue to stimulate the cooperation
between all knowledge centres and with the sector. The past year, the Flemish
BioKennisNetwerk updated its ‘Research strategy for organic agriculture
and food: 2018-2022’ together with its partners. With the design of a Living
Lab for Agro-ecology and Organic agriculture, ILVO wants to create extra
space to facilitate future knowledge development and sharing between and
together with all research and knowledge partners and the organic sector.
On 10th January 2019, the NOBL seminar took place at the Agriflanders
trade show. During this seminar, titled ‘Organic agriculture, smart farming²’,
NOBL, together with Boerenbond, Inagro, CCBT and ILVO, focused on the
value of new technologies for innovations in organic arable and vegetable
production. The participants reflected on the role that new technologies
can play for organic family farms that are often less specialized and limited
in size. Discussions were held on the research themes and aspects that
will best support ‘smarter’ production in Flemish organic agriculture and
horticulture in the future.
Thank you to all who have contributed to this overview! To all, enjoy your
reading!
