Integrated and innovative key actions for mycotoxin management in the food and feed chain (MycoKey)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2020,
MycoKey aims to generate innovative and integrated solutions that will support stakeholders in effective and sustainable mycotoxin management along food and feed chains. The project will contribute to reduce mycotoxin contamination mainly in Europe and China, where frequent and severe mycotoxin contaminations occur in crops, and where international trade of commodities and contaminated batches are ...

Genotype and Environment contributing to the sustainability of dairy cow production systems through the optimal integration of genomic selection and novel management protocols based on the development (GplusE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
The requirement for sustainable food production is a global issue to which the EU contributes as a major livestock producer. It is critical to improve animal production efficiency while sustaining environmentally friendly milk production. More profitable dairy production requires increased milk yield, cow health, longevity and fertility; reduced environmental footprint and optimised use of inputs. ...

International University Cooperation on Land Protection in European-Asiatic Countries
Date du début: 15 oct. 2015, Date de fin: 14 oct. 2018,
Soil and land degradation refers to all process(es) by which soil declines in quality and is thus made less fit for a specific purpose, such the crop production. Education will play a crucial role in the land degradation protection. This involves an opportunity and implies rethinking and reorganizing higher education institutions (HEIs) to become effective change agents in terms of learning out ...

Linking Epidemiology and Laboratory Research on Transboundary Animal Diseases and zoonoses in China and EU (LinkTADs)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2016,
The continuous growth of the world population translates into a demand of animal protein that can only be achieved through technological advances in farming, intensification, and expansion of farmed land. These pressures, combined with the increasing international trade of animals and their products, will lead to the rapid spread of animal diseases across borders and the emergence of new pathogen ...

A genomics approach to increasing disease resistance in dairy cows through improvements in innate immunity (INNATELYBETTERCOWS)
Date du début: 1 août 2015, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2016,
...nd (6) to perform a functional validation study on blood cell responses to bacterial pathogens in cows with differing genotypes for the selected candidate genes. The project combines the expertise of Huazhong Agricultural University, China (HZAU) and the Royal Veterinary College, UK (RVC) in farm animal genetics and genomics, dairy cow production and the innate immune system. The objectives will b ...

Enabling the exploitation of Insects as a Sustainable Source of Protein for Animal Feed and Human Nutrition (PROTEINSECT)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
Food security is a global challenge. Within the overall increased demand for food, and particularly meat production, there is also an urgent need to increase supply of protein from sustainable sources. The principle objective of the international and multidisciplinary PROteINSECT consortium is to facilitate the exploitation of insects as an alternative protein source for animal and human nutrition ...

Optimization of Perennial Grasses for Biomass Production (OPTIMA)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
OPTIMA will integrate an ambitious biology system approach for perennial grasses such as switchgrass, miscanthus and giant reed in the Mediterranean environment. Moreover the perennial species cardoon, which has been proven to be particularly adapted to the Mediterranean climate, will be used as a control species.The main objective of the OPTIMA project is to identify high-yielding perennial grass ...

Sustainable Solutions for Small Ruminants (3SR)
Date du début: 1 mai 2010, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,
"The 3SR project (Sustainable Solutions for Small Ruminants) brings together a strong and unique international consortium of 14 partners that will mine genomic information of sheep and goats to deliver a step-change in our understanding of the genetic basis of traits underlying sustainable production and health. To do this we will build on existing research resources in the major sheep and goat pr ...
