Agricultural Working Group: Rob van Lint about "Myths and facts about plant protection products"

The Lânboukundich Wurkferbân (Agricultural Working Group) organises regular meetings, usually at the Fries Landbouwmuseum in Leeuwarden (Goutum), and excursions on agronomic issues of the past and present. The aim of these activities is to share (scientific) knowledge with a wide audience.

The second half of the 20th century saw many changes in agriculture. The number of people earning a living in agriculture has declined. Nevertheless, today agriculture still occupies an important position in terms of employment in Fryslân. Agriculture is also increasingly involved in issues such as spatial planning, environment, nature, landscape and tourism. Issues such as biotechnology and genetic modification touch on ethics. All these topics are covered in the meetings of the Lânboukundich Wurkferbân.

In the winter season 2025-2026, the Wurkferbân is organising a series of lectures.
