This project is titled: "Integrated management of agricultural production" and regards mobility of 50 students in initial vocational education in two streams, of 1st EPAL OF Piraeus in the fields of agronomic, food and environment. The students, along with their accompanying teachers will be going to Portugal and Italy for 14 days in January and March 2015 respectively, and will be welcomed by the AIAM and MUOVERSI.eu as host institutions.
The object of the proposed project is the training in integrated management in agricultural production. Nowadays there is an urgent need for protection and conservation of natural resources, and the new trends of consumers on 'healthy food' and environmental protection. Given those developments planned in this project, which refers to the integrated management of agriculture, i.e. a series of principles and procedures to be applied, taking into account the specific environmental conditions.
