About
 The
European ERA-NET Project CORE
Organic (Co-ordination of European Transnational Research in Organic
Food and Farming) is a 3-year co-ordination Action in organic food
and farming (2004 to 2007). Eleven European countries are respresented
in the project.
The overall objective is to gather the critical mass and
enhance quality, relevance and utilisation of resources in European
research in organic food and farming. In order to document the current
status of organic farming research in Europe the
Organic Eprints archive is
used. The final goal of the project is to establish a joint European
research programme.
The project is coordinated by the Danish Research Centre
of Organic Farming DARCOF.
Pilot Call
In September 2006 the eleven partners of the ERA-Net project
Core Organic have issued a pilot pilot call for transnational research programme in organic food
and farming. The call was open from September 4, to December 1, 2006.
The thematic areas chosen in the pilot call were:
-
Animal disease and parasite management, mainly
focusing on preventive health and improving therapies to reduce
reliance on antibiotics
-
Quality of organic food - health and safety
- Innovative marketing strategies - identification of successful
marketing methods, local markets.
Following a pilot call , the CORE Organic Governing Board selected
eight
research projects for further negotiations. The new research starts
in the middle of June 2007.
Newsletter
The Core
Organic Newsletter informs regulary about organic farming research
in Europe as well as about the progress of the project.
