HEALTHY GRAPES OF MURCIA
The main objective of the project is to guarantee the supply of table grapes of Murcia, which are considered by the consumers as healthy.
To achieve this objective it is necessary to improve and specify in detail the activities of the producers related to the good agriculture praxis.Based on techniques which are already in use - like integrated crop management this project adds a risk based approach considering important toxicological parameters as well as principal environmental aspects which are included in several reports and publications of non governmental organisations like Greenpeace or PAN (Pesticide Action Network).
