As part of our ongoing commitment to keeping a close finger on the pulse of EU policy making, Seed World Europe continues to track every rotating EU Council Presidency and its relevance for our seed sector. With Brussels shaping so much of the regulatory landscape, we work to keep our readers fully informed about the political priorities that influence plant breeding, seed legislation, and agricultural innovation. Throughout the past Presidencies, we’ve covered how each country has approached key files—from PRM reform and NGTs to food security and sustainable development. As we head into the holiday season, here’s a look back at our five most recent articles capturing the shifting EU agenda.
