Selection, testing and propagation of ungrafted and climate adapted street and avenue tree assortments for nursery production (Trees4Streets)
Project
Project code: EIP-Agri-BR-2016-PGGRFBV01
Contract period: 01.01.2016
- 31.12.2018

Aim of the project is the establishment of a new, innovative, pioneering farming system in the nursery practice for the production of street and avenue trees. The project uses physiological early tests to select adaptable varieties of various tree species and provide for nursery production. The new production and cultivation system is carried out based on the in vitro propagation of this new climate adapted varieties. An effective transfer process of in vitro plants will be developed in the street and avenue tree production, which is based on providing ungrafted varieties for outdoor cultivation in nurseries.
