Agricultural practices in Europe are undergoing a significant evolution towards precision technologies, reflecting rapid technological developments in digital sciences and agricultural equipment, as well as political will towards sustainable agriculture. Precision applications are part of this evolution, and, within the regulatory context, different stakeholders have undertaken to study the consequences of the evolution of application technologies for crop protection on risks and risk assessment. The EUPAF (European Precision Application Task Force) was established in June 2023 to provide a scientific platform for experts in equipment, farmers, scientists performing risk assessments from public and private organizations, and researchers to exchange information about these technologies and discuss the way forward for their inclusion in regulatory process. This manuscript will give an overview of the structure, activities and objectives of the EUPAF.
