Here are projects that AgMnet+ members are coordinating or involved in.

  • Project title: Aedes Invasive Mosquitoes AIM COST Action CA17108
  • Acronym: AIM COST
  • Type/financed by: COST Action
  • Objective: With increasing trade and travel, several Aedes species have been introduced into Europe and are now spreading spectacularly rapidly becoming a widespread significant public health risk which needs to be effectively addressed, as testified by recent cases of autochthonous chikungunya and dengue transmission.

  • Project title: Assessment of climate change effects on agricultural soil and water environment in the Loess Plateau of China and Serbia and corresponding solutions (Number of the proposal YS2017YFGH000553)
  • Type/financed by: College of Natural Resources and Environment, Northwest A&F University
  • Objective: Analysis of mechanism how agricultural soil and water respond to climate change, Impact assessment of historical climate change on agricultural soil and water, Scenario analysis of future climate change impacts on agricultural soil and water, Adaptation of agricultural soil and water to climate change
  • Lead partner: College of Natural Resources and Environment, Northwest A&F University, PI in China – ZHI Li (full professor), PI in Serbia – Branko Cupina (full professor)

  • Project title: Drought Risk in Danube Region
  • Acronym: DRyDANUBE
  • Type/financed by: INTERREG Danube Transnational Programme
  • Objective: The main objective of DriDanube project is to increase the capacity of the Danube region to manage drought related risks. The project aims at helping all stakeholders involved in drought management become more efficient during drought emergency response and prepare better for the next drought.
  • Lead partner: Slovenian Environment Agency (PFNS+21)
  • www.interreg-danube.eu/approved-projects/dridanube
  • Project title: Climate Change and its effects on the Environment – Monitoring, Modeling, Adapting, Mitigating (III43007)
  • Type/financed by: Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of Republic of Serbia
  • Objective: Multidisciplinary research in the field of climate change and its effects.
  • Lead partner: Faculty of Forestry, University of Belgrade (PFNS + 37)
  • Project title:  Selection of sweet and sour cherry dwarfing rootstocks and development of intensive cultivation technology based on sustainable agriculture principles Ev. No. TR31038
  • Type/financed by:  Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of Republic of Serbia
  • Objectiv: Sweet and sour cherry scion and rootsotck breeding
  • Lead partner: PFNS
  • Project title: Improvement of field forage crops agronomy and grassland management (TR31016)
  • Type/financed by: Ministry of Science and Technological Development of Republic of Serbia
  • Objectiv: The aim of the research is to intensify the use of annual forage crops in crop production based on the principles of the sustainable agriculture and the possibility of growing annual forages in intercropping. The aim also includes the use of cover crops in the establishment of perennial legumes, as well as the improvement of productivity and quality of permanent grasslands by applying different management practice.
  • Lead partner: PFNS (Prof. Dr Branko Ćupina project coordinator)
  • Project title: Cover crops for enhanced agricultural sustainability in the Vojvodina province (114-451-2180/2016)
  • Type/financed by: Provincial Secretariat for Higher Education and Scientific Research
  • Objective: The aim of the research is to determine the impact of forage cover crops grown in crop rotation on the improvement of soil properties (increase of soil nitrogen content for the main crop, increase the organic matter content etc.) and sustainability of agricultural production in general.
  • Lead partner: PFNS (Prof. Dr Branko Ćupina project coordinator)
  • Project title: Supporting the Austrian Research Community in using recent Climate Change Projections for Climate Impact Studies
  • Acronym: STARC
  • Type/financed by: Austrian Climate Research Programme (ACRP) – Individual Project
  • Objectiv: Evaluating uncertainties from downscaled climate models into crop models for climate change impact studies and devloping recommendations
  • Lead partner: Karl Franzens Universität Graz, Wegener Center für Klima und Globalen Wandel, Österreich
  • Project title:  COMBIned weather related RISK assessment monitor for tailoring climate change adaptation in Austrian crop production
