Communication and Dissemination Strategy and Action Plan

Outlining the major axes of the communication and dissemination strategy. Definition of targets, messages, tools and activities and timing.

OPTIMA brochure and leaflet

Attractive and easily digestible publications describing the benefits of the solution and the value proposition to the target market. There will be one additional update on M18.

OPTIMA newsletter

Online publication presenting the activities and promoting the key features of OPTIMA, providing information on relevant activities in Innovation in Crop protection field.

First batch of practice abstracts for end-users

"The resulting innovative knowledge and easy accessible end-user material from this project will feed into the EIP-AGRI (The agricultural European Innovation Partnership) website for broad dissemination. The end-user material to be produced contains a substantial number of summaries for practitioners in the EIP common format (""practice abstracts""), including the characteristics of the project (e.g. contact details of partners, etc). A full package of practice abstracts will be produced by the project, containing all the outcomes/recommendations which are ready for practice. A ""practice abstract"" is a short summary of around 1000-1500 characters (word count – no spaces; see below) which describes the main information/recommendation/practice that can serve the end-users in their daily practice. Guidance and templates for these practice abstracts are available on the EIP-AGRI web site: http://ec.europa.eu/eip/agriculture/en/content/eip-agri-common-format. A total target number of 30 practice abstracts is foreseen for the project. 10 are expected to be delivered in the first batch. "

Report on drift reduction technologies for the different crop-disease-PPP combinations

This report will contain the methodology, the experimental procedure and the results of the assessment of different innovative technologies for spray drift control together with a selection of technologies that will be integrated in the three smart sprayers.
