This afternoon, the 🇪🇺 potato value chain met with @EU_Commission's @EUAgri & @EU_Health to address the severity of late blight in #potatoes.
The value chain urged for measures to help farmers implement better control strategies against this destructive disease.

“In 30 years of working on Potato Cyst Nematodes never have I seen such high infestations as found in Kenya” -Prof @JohnTJo90676094 at the @ESNematologists meeting in #Spain. Sad how this pest has multiplied over time! But encouraging to see the research going on in Kenya.

Mike Rivington @JamesHuttonInst provided a sobering Keynote talk leading delegates through the coming changes in climate! Although the talk ended on a positive note any mention of the breakdown of the Atlantic jet-stream is somewhat terrifying! #cpnb24

Delighted to announce the continuation of FAB for the 2023 season. With huge thanks to the consortium of sponsors and the network of blight scouts who have recognised the value of FAB to the industry and have supported the initiative. Here's to a successful season.
We recently secured funding to continue our “Fight Against Blight” (FAB) project.
The #FAB project helps protect valuable #potato crops by alerting growers across the UK to late #blight outbreaks via a website populated by “FAB Scouts”.

It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of our friend and fellow plant pathologist Dr. Louise Cooke on the 23rd Feb 2023 after a short illness. We at Hutton and EuroBlight offer our sincere condolences to Louise’s family and many friends and collaborators.

It is absolutely essential that the blight population monitoring scheme continues for the UK potato crop.
With new resistant strains on the continent, we must know what we are dealing with.
We must not lose this service!

A surprisingly moving ceremony as I deposited seeds from the UK in the Seed Vault on Svalbard yesterday.
More than a million plant varieties are stored deep in the permafrost helping preserve the world’s biodiversity and food security. @CropTrust @NordGen @scotgov @DefraGovUK
