Advancing the Transition to Organic Farming

With Dr Shadi Hashem from Aberdeen University, Scotland and Andreia Arbenz, policy researcher at Agroscope, Switzerland.

A webinar by AGROECOLOGY TRANSECT project and VISIONARY.

This webinar is of interest to farmers, researchers and policy makers.

We know from previous webinars that there is a sizable body of research demonstrating how organic and agroecological farming increase biodiversity and help farmers find resilient solutions to ever-more frequent periods of drought and deluge.

We also know that on the ground, there is still inertia and resistance to change. This webinar explores why.

We take a deep dive into two current studies, looking at:
1. The mechanics and practicalities needed to make conversion to organic farming appealing and achievable
2. Farmers’ motivations and intentions when looking at how to make changes to their farm systems
