Promoting sustainability and innovation in plant production

Plant Sciences

This area brings together several research groups that address the main challenges of plant production in a context of global change. They work to improve the efficiency, sustainability and quality of crops through agronomy, biotechnology, physiology, phenomics, precision technologies and plant protection with ecological approaches.

Their work combines fundamental and applied research, with a strong focus on knowledge transfer and participation in collaborative projects at national and international level. Coordination between the groups allows for a cross-cutting approach to the main challenges facing the agricultural sector.
