European Union Member States are currently working on the implementation of the
Framework Directive on the sustainable use of pesticides to make Integrated Pest Management become a field reality by 2014. Major efforts in research and development are called for to accompany this initiative and help mainstream IPM.
ENDURE believes we can take advantage of the diversity of experiences, tools and
strategies across Europe and build synergies to make crop protection more compatible with our new environmental goals while maintaining our competitiveness.
That’s what ENDURE has been working on since 2007 and the international conference, which is being organised by INRA, will provide the opportunity for the Network of Excellence to share the fruits of four years’ research with the crop protection community.
The event will provide farmers, advisers, policy makers, researchers and
representatives of the farm supply chain and food retail sectors across Europe with the opportunity to better appreciate, critique, feed into and benefit from our research strategies and outputs. It will also provide a preview of, and help us improve, the future permanent European Research Group that will maintain, update and enrich the resources made available by ENDURE.
