Genetics and physiology of wheat development to flowering: tools to breed for improved adaptation and yield potential (ADAPTAWHEAT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
"ADAPTAWHEAT will show how flowering time variation can be exploited for the genetic improvement of the European wheat crop to optimise adaptation and performance in the light of predicted climate change. It will test current hypotheses that postulate specific changes in ear emergence and the timing and duration of developmental phases, which are thought of as components of ear emergence, will i ...

Best sustainable life-cycle fittings for mixed herbaceous solid biofuels for heating to reduce GHG emissions (GREEN PELLETS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
Background
Europe is committed to greenhouse gas emission reductions. Part of the reduction will be achieved by a switch to renewable energy. The European Union has a binding target for renewables in energy consumption to increase to 20% in 2020.
The heating/cooling sector consumes 49% of final energy in the EU. Most of this thermal energy is produced by ...

Train the operators to prevent pollution from point sources (TOPPS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2005, End date: Oct 31, 2008,
Background
In past years, several small pilot projects have been carried out on water pollution from plant protection products (PPP), achieving reductions in PPP concentrations in some surface waters of over 90%. There has, however, been little or no coordination and exchange of experiences between these initiatives. Moreover, due to the small scale of th ...

Development and implementation of codes of good agricultural practices to reduce point source and diffuse pollutions in the Peron catchments area (AGRI-PERON)
Start date: Sep 1, 2004, End date: Oct 31, 2007,
Background
Use of crop-protection products presents a number of environmental challenges. Nitrate-based fertilizers and pesticides in particular pollute waters and harm biodiversity in surrounding areas. There is a need to make farmers aware of agricultural practices designed to support sustainable development â measures which will restore and preserve ...
