Save the date - FAO Webinar will discuss the food safety implications from the use of environmental inhibitors in agrifood systems

Based on the recent publication, Food safety implications from the use of environmental inhibitors in agrifood systems, FAO has organized a webinar, which will take place on Thursday, 9 May 2024 from 14:30 to 15:30 CEST via Zoom, to stimulate discussion on the food safety aspects that need to be considered and addressed when using environmental inhibitors in agrifood systems. 

“Among the approaches that are being developed to increase the sustainability of agrifood systems, environmental inhibitors help reduce negative impacts on the environment while improving the production efficiency of crops and livestock,” said FAO Food Safety Specialist Magdalena Niegowska.

“We hope that the findings and the food safety analysis offered in our report will be useful to realize the full potential of environmental inhibitors towards resilient, sustainable and safe agrifood systems,” said Vittorio Fattori, FAO Food Safety Officer.
