SOCIAL COOPERATION AND MANAGEMENT OF GREEN AREAS

CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR SEAT

Curated by Agroservice

The new norms on social businesses with the reformation of the Third Sector has given a new shape to activity sectors, organisations, policies and development strategies. The reform has shown a new tendency that goes towards non-profit organisations, associations and cooperations. Social cooperation widens and confirms its field of action in those sectors – such as maintenance and management of trees – where businesses and administrations are redesigning projects and services. A new model of welfare that witnesses the social cooperation as the protagonist of entrepreneurial projects dedicated to the most vulnerable subjects. A meeting dedicated to the perspectives and experiences of the social business in the sector of the management and maintenance of trees.

 Modern cycle paths are the demonstration of how the relationship between sport, nature and architecture is not only a tool for urban regeneration, but it is also beneficial from an cultural and economic point of view, in that they benefit the territories that they cross. Moreover, there is a further benefit for landscape architects, architects, engineers, nursery owners, agronomists, builders, maintenance operators and urban planners who find in this version of anthropised nature a space to express their abilities in view of a “greener” tourism.

 AGROCHEMICALS FOR NON-PROFESSIONAL USE: HOW THE MARKET CHANGES IN VIEW OF THE DEADLINE OF 2 MAY 2020

CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR SEAT

According to law 33 of 22 January 2018 produced by the Ministry of Health, the Italian industry of agrochemicals for non-professional use might have to deal with a revolution in the upcoming years. The businesses involved, producers and specialised resellers will face the consequences of the law, as well as non-professional users who will no longer be able to use pesticides, not even those allowed in organic agriculture, thus leaving gardens and orchards without a proper protection.

Thanks to the participation of the most important experts, the seminar will deal in depth with the problems connected to these new norms, and it will try to focus on the solutions both for resellers and for end consumers.
