Participate in Defra Consultation on Plant Varieties and Seeds Framework for Precision Bred Organisms – please read and share. Deadline 14 April 2025.

Its not directly meadows – but its one of those topics that needs to be read, considered and shared. The Soill Association says:

“The consultation aims to gather feedback on:the proposed Precision Bred Variety List for Englandimpact on businesses across the UKimpacts if mandatory labelling of precision bred seeds and other plant reproductive material are required.Because neither the variety list, nor labelling of PBOs are a foregone conclusion, it is important that Defra understand the positive and negative impacts on businesses should these requirements are put in place, and also if they are not.”

The Soil Assoication website provides more information and links to access the Defra consultation.
