Having completed nearly 3 years research and its final year on the horizon the H2020 project EUCLID has been looking at more sustainable pest management methods in order to reduce the negative effects of pesticides on human health and the environment.
Its main goal is developing sustainable production approaches used in European and Chinese agriculture to contribute to secure the production of food for the worldwide population. Co-ordinated by INRA in France it hopes that, by efficiently adapting pest management solutions to the specific problems of European and Chinese farmers, it can help create a solution to the current issues created by pesticides.
