Agricultural Research for Improving Arable Crop Competitiveness

Objective

EUROCROP aims at setting up a network putting together all stakeholders, to organize a collective research needs analysis to improving the European arable crops competitiveness, and to propose research actions. EUROCROP partnership as represented by the st akeholder board, includes organisations using research, including farmers organizations, as well as organisations providing research, innovation and extension services. Representative organizations of civil society in the field of environment preservation and consumer advocate will be integrated in the partnership at the beginning of the project. To meet its goals EUROCROP will operate according to a cross-cutting approach, first by arable crop (cereals, oilseeds, sugar beets, fibre crops, potatoes, grain l egumes and maize), second by transversal elements of the competitiveness including technical aspects at farming level, farm economics and production costs, outlets and markets, quality of agricultural products, environmental impacts and socio-economic issu es. These topics will be addressed by specialists, in the frame of workshops, according to a common method. The main results of this two and a half years concerted action will be (i) a set of research proposals for policy makers and planers, strengthened i n the course of a final conference opened to a broader audience and (ii) the existence of a European network of specialists, which would continue to work beyond the end of the action to set up research projects.
