The French Ministry of Agriculture and Bpifrance have set up a “Biocontrol Diagnostic” to boost the development of R&D activities related to biopesticides and to promote the commercialization of biocontrol products in the French market. This arrangement is a wonderful opportunity for SMEs aiming to develop biopesticides, for which registration procedures are often considered as a pitfall. As a matter of fact, independent companies registered in France with up to 2000 staff can have their regulatory costs funded to 50% (up to € 120 000) thanks to this program. Services that can be subsidized are:
- Preliminary studies to characterize your product and its effectiveness;
- Review of the scientific literature;
- Data Gap Analysis according to current data requirements & Preliminary Risk Assessment;
- Laboratory and field trials under certain conditions.
