Recommendations for the testing of heterogeneous plant material (D5.1)

This deliverable is about the possibility to use heterogeneous material in European regulations for organic farming. The impact of the use of heterogeneous material and their consequences on DUS and VCU testing were discussed. Results from two European initiatives (EU-Project LIVESEED and the temporary experiment on cereals and maize populations) shared with CPVO, EOs and involved stakeholders in two workshops (CPVO, FiBL) were analysed to give a list of recommendations on organic heterogeneous material.
