International Plant Health Day – May 12

Today we celebrate International Plant Health Day. This is a great opportunity to remind you how crucial plant health is to food security, sustainable development and the protection of biodiversity.

In scientific institutions, we work on:

  • plant diseases,
  • development of resistant cultivars,
  • solutions supporting agriculture and the environment.

May 12 is not just a symbolic date – it is an appeal for responsibility for the future of agriculture, nature and human health.
