Hi all,

We've just launched an EU-funded project called 'SPRINT', which is going to develop a risk assessment toolbox to help farmers to use pesticides in a more integrated way to minimise risk to human and environmental health. The project has 11 case studies across Europe and also in Argentina. You can read a press release about the project here!

We've got several social media platforms you can connect with (see below) and we'd love to hear from farmers to see how you feel about the use of various pesticides (e.g., glyphosate, metaldehyde, neonics etc). We are impartial and are interested in hearing your thoughts! We'd also love to share updates from the project and pesticide news with you all so please connect on social media if you're interested.

Facebook: @sprintH2020
LinkedIn: Sprint-h2020

We also have a website (more information will be uploaded to it soon): www.sprint-h2020.eu.

Many thanks,

The SPRINT team
