The LIFE FROSTDEFEND consortium made a significant impact at the 20th International Plant Protection Congress, held at the prestigious Athens Megaron International Conference Centre from July 1st to 5th, 2024 (https://www.ippcathens2024.gr/). This Congress attracted over 800 participants working on Plant Protection from around the world. The consortium partner Agricultural University of Athens organized the Concurrent Session 52 titled “Frost damage mitigation strategies for crops, organized by project Life-Frostdefend”. Our distinguished team, including Professor Dimitri Georgakopoulos, Dr. Khalil Geballa Koukoulas from the Agricultural University of Athens, and Dr. Nicolas Dusart from INRAE, presented the background on the creation and use of the Frostdefend tool. The session was further enriched by the presence of renowned scientists Dr. Lia Lamacque (INRAE France), Dr Jean-François Berthoumieu, Research Director of the Association Climatologique de la Moyenne-Garonne et du Sud-Ouest (France), and remotely, Professor Steve Lindow, a pioneer in research on biological ice nucleation and plant frost damage, from the University of California, Berkeley (USA). Their participation added depth to the discussions and highlighted the significance of our research to the global Plant Protection scientific community. We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended this Concurrent Session. The LIFE FROSTDEFEND consortium continues the work for the benefit of farmers whose crops suffer from frost damage.
