Contract period: 01.03.2004
- 28.02.2009
Budget: 12,440,000 Euro
Purpose of research: Basic research
For society, organic and other “low input” farming systems provide an effective means of responding to the increasing consumer pressure to omit or reduce agricultural inputs (in particular pesticides, mineral fertilisers, veterinary medicines and growth promoters). However, in order to ensure that the European societies benefit optimally from this mechanism, it is necessary to address the actual and perceived problems or benefits which are of particular importance for low-input farming systems.
