First BIOGREENET Italian Regional Workshop and Technical Visit in Modica and Ragusa

The BIOGREENET project launches its regional meetings in Italy with a two-day event dedicated to organic greenhouse production. On June 30 and July 1, 2026, farmers and technicians will gather in Sicily to network and discuss innovations and challenges in the sector.

The first BIOGREENET Italian Regional meeting is planned in Modica and Ragusa (Sicily). This event provides a crucial exchange space for farmers and technicians to map out future opportunities and perspectives for organic greenhouse farming.

The program is split into two main sessions:

June 30, 2026 (Modica): A participatory workshop focused on technical challenges, sharing best practices, and discussing the strategic role of local networks in driving innovation in organic greenhouses. The day will conclude with a networking buffet at the host venue.

July 1, 2026 (Ragusa): A hands-on technical field visit focused on practical insights regarding soil solarization and summer green manure management, two key agronomic practices for sustainable organic greenhouse systems.
