1 · What it gives

Multivalent and combination vaccines combine several vaccines, or vaccines with toxoids, in set proportions so one injection prevents multiple diseases. They replace the need for several separate monovalent vaccines. Quadrivalent and pentavalent vaccines are available at commercial scale in China, where lot-release data is tracked annually: in 2022 Beijing Minhai released 310,000 doses of its quadrivalent vaccine and Sanofi Pasteur 790,000 doses of its pentavalent vaccine.

D2Disease-resistant crop varieties (marker-assisted breeding, stacked resistance genes, cisgenesis) instead of routine fungicide spray programmes
Replaces: Season-long protective fungicide programmes on susceptible varieties — e.g. 10–20 sprays of mancozeb/chlorothalonil/metalaxyl against potato …
SEED
D1Garden, allotment and lawn pest control with beneficial nematodes — Phasmarhabditis against slugs, Steinernema/Heterorhabditis against vine weevil, chafer grubs, leatherjackets — instead of metaldehyde pellets and soil insecticides
Replaces: Metaldehyde slug pellets (banned outdoors in Great Britain from 2022), methiocarb pellets (EU non-renewed), soil insecticides in gardens and …
MACRO
D1Disease-resistant livestock genetics — genomic selection, adapted breeds, gene-edited PRRS-resistant pigs — instead of routine antibiotics, acaricides and repeated mass treatment
Replaces: Metaphylactic antibiotics used against secondary infections after PRRS and other viral diseases; frequent acaricide dipping of …
BREED
D2Drone release of beneficial insects (Trichogramma, Cotesia, predatory mites) instead of insecticide sprays
Replaces: Insecticide sprays against caterpillar and mite pests, and manual walking release of natural enemies (the labour bottleneck of large-scale …
MACRO
D1Fermentation (stainless and single-use bioreactors, solid-state reactors) and downstream equipment (centrifuges, filtration, spray and fluid-bed drying, formulation) for local production of enzymes, microbial products and fermentation ingredients instead of chemical-synthesis plants and imports
Replaces: Chemical-synthesis routes and imports for the products in FI-, FD-, I- and A-series articles (enzymes, organic acids, vitamins, microbial …
EAC
D1Food and market organic waste treated by black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, composting and bokashi fermentation instead of landfilling, open dumping and incineration of wet waste
Replaces: Landfilling and open dumping of food/market waste (methane, leachate, vectors); incineration of high-moisture organic waste; chemical fly …
