Optimisation of early reproductive success in dairy cattle through the definition of new traits and improved reproductive biotechnology (FECUND)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
"Good fertility is essential for the sustainability of livestock production. Of all livestock sectors, fertility of dairy cattle is raising the greatest cause for concern.

Superheated Steam-based process for low energy and high quality drying of food and food residues (STEAMDRY)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,
The EU market for processed foods is changing: there is now an increasing demand by consumers for foods that have undergone fewer changes during processing, foods that resemble more to the original raw materials with high nutritive values, flavour and a “natural” image.These pressures are especially significant for a SME dominated sector, the dried foods: although it represents more than €8 billio ...
