How can seed priming research better respond to the needs of farmers, seed companies and policy actors? PrimSeedPower is planning a Strategic Stakeholder Roundtable in the Netherlands on 17 September 2027 to connect research with the people and organisations involved in agricultural innovation.
The roundtable is intended to bring together scientists, breeders, seed-sector representatives, farmers and advisers, policymakers, international organisations and relevant European initiatives. Participants will discuss user needs, barriers to uptake, standardisation, regulation, practical validation and innovation pathways. By opening dialogue across the research-to-practice chain, PrimSeedPower aims to support the development of seed priming approaches that are scientifically sound, useful to growers and relevant to climate-resilient food systems. Venue and participation details will be announced when confirmed.
