      <description><![CDATA[Sustainable food chains through public policies: the cases of the EU quality policy and of public sector food procurement

Expected impact:
- provide insight into the effects of the EU quality policy and public sector food procurement policies on sustainability and on the promotion of a healthy diet
- allow to better design and implement these policies and to foster their delivery to the overall sustainability of agriculture and the rural economy
- clarify how these approaches, through the creation of new quality markets, can foster the development of local food chains.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Strategies for crop productivity, stability and quality

Specific Challenge: Crop productivity is determined by genetic variability and the complex interactions of the genotype (G) with its environment (E) in the context of specific management interventions (M). Understanding and capturing the dynamic of these above and below ground interactions in breeding programmes and farm management is considered as critical to address concerns over stagnating yields and yield gaps, building resilience to biotic and abiotic threats and further progress in crop improvement.]]></description>

B. [2015] Management and sustainable use of genetic resources
Proposals should implement comprehensive actions to improve the status and use of (in particular European) ex-situ and in-situ genetic collections. More specifically, they should support acquisition, conservation, characterisation/evaluation and especially the use of specific genetic resources in breeding, farming and forestry activities. Furthermore, proposals should undertake broader dissemination and awareness raising activities. In doing so, they should closely liaise with relevant on-going initiatives e.g. seeking to harmonise, rationalise and improve management of existing collections and databases.]]></description>
