The ERA-Net SusCrop partners are pleased to announce the launch of a 2nd transnational Call in the field of sustainable crop production.

Following the Co-funded Call in 2018, this new joint call intends to support scientifically excellent transnational research, development and innovation projects that contribute to the improvement of sustainability (environmental, economic and societal) and resilience of crop production. In addition, the Call puts greater emphasis on how projects might contribute to food and nutritional security in the light of climate change.

Funding agencies from 12 different countries including Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Latvia, Poland, Romania (tbc), Spain, Turkey, and UK intend to join the Call.

The call consists of a two-stage submission procedure. Interested researchers should submit their pre-proposals by April 9, 2020. In case of approval by the International Expert Panel (IEP), consortia will be invited for the second step mid-June 2020 and will have to submit their full proposals by September 10, 2020.

More information including the call documents is available on the SusCrop website.
