International Year of Plant Health 2020
Plant health is increasingly under threat.
Plants are the source of the air we breathe and most of the food we eat, yet we often don’t think about keeping them healthy. This can have devastating results.

This leaves millions of people without enough food to eat and seriously damages agriculture – the primary source of income for rural poor communities
