From the blog post:
Something must be done – nobody’s questioning that. But the dilemma in the agricultural sector is not easy to solve: crops must be protected from diseases and pests, yet many products potentially endanger both the environment and our health. The risks here must be drastically reduced – and fast.

Note from blog owner:
On Tuesday 20 October 2020, the World Food System Center and researchers from the Agricultural Economics and Policy group will host a public webinar on “Pathways for advancing pesticide policies”.
