Citizen Science meets potatoes: Engaging citizens in protecting plant health

12th of May is International Day of Plant Health. We want to use this opportunity to present three different projects dedicated to plant health: ROTATES, CERBERUS and PataFEST. From potatoes to vines, from lab analysis to crop rotation, from collaborative research to citizen science: The webinar will showcase different topics, approaches and ways of engaging with citizens while working on healthy soils and healthy crops.
