The Biopesticide Summit

Join us for the 2021 Virtual Biopesticide Summit on Tuesday 6th July! 

The virtual Summit will focus on regulatory challenges, and calls for reform to create a regulatory environment that nurtures and supports the bioprotection sector.

Join us to hear our first-class faculty present and debate the need for reform, their visions for a successful regulatory system, and how the WBF is working towards process reform in UK biopesticide regulation.

Highlights from the Biopesticide Summit 2019

Emergency Summit for the control of leather jackets using ipm

The emergency summit for IPM Approach for Leatherjacket Control in Turf Sports takes place on Wednesday 14th July!

Leatherjacket larvae are causing extensive damage to turf – this year, these pests have reached an all-time high, thanks to a lack of effective chemical pesticides, and the fact that they have thrived in quiet, unused areas during the COVID pandemic.

Join us to learn how to address cultural, physical, mechanical, chemical, and biological pest control in the golf/sports turf and amenity sector – with a particular focus on the effective management of leatherjackets (crane fly larvae).
