The aim of the Bio4safe project is to reduce water and fertiliser use in horticulture using biostimulants and innovative sensors tools.
We wanted to share the outcomes of the project with growers, agronomists, researchers, biostimulant producers, legislators and all other stakeholders.
The webinar that took place in December 2020 is available to view

This interactive webinar lasted approximately two hours and included:
- Biostimulant and sensor overview
- Results from biostimulant and sensor field trials on soft fruit, vegetables, ornamentals and arable crops
- Presentation of Free On-Line Biostimulant database (https://bio4safe.eu/en)
This webinar was in English language.
Webinars in French and Dutch language will follow in January 2021.
