EU research projects at Faculty of Agriculture

 

Framework programe 7 (FP7)

  1. Reinforcement of sustainable aquaculture (ROSA), FP7-REGPOT-3, prof. Zoran Marković, website creation in progress, 3 participating countries. Objectives: development of Serbian and WB aquaculture by reinforcing exsisting expertise and developing research in selective breeding of carp at the faculty.

  2. Impact of Climate Change and Globalisation on Safety of Fresh Produce overning a Supply Chain of Uncompromised Food Sovereignty

    Veg-i-Trade is funded by the seventh Framework programme for research of the European Commission. The project seeks to assess the impact of anticipated climate change and globalisation on the safety issues concerning fresh produce and derived food products. Research will be performed concerning the economic structure of the fresh produce chain, and control measures to minimise microbiological and chemical risks will be developed.

    Veg-i-Trade unifies 23 international partners from universities, research institutes, SMEs and large industrial partners. Recommendations concerning good practices and quality assurance in the fresh produce supply chain will be developed and exchanged via international collaborations and capacity building. In parallel, Veg-i-Trade will organise discussion fora concerning particular aspects of food sovereignty related to the safety of fresh produce.

    Project coordinator: Prof. dr. ir. Mieke Uyttendaele (Ghent University, Belgium)

  3. ADVANCING RESEARCH IN AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD SCIENCES AT FACULTY OF AGRICULTURE, UNIVERSITY OF BELGRADE (AREA),

Work programme: FP7-REGPOT-2012-2013-1, Participant: Faculty of Agriculture.

Objectives: to reinforce and advance the research capacity of 13 excellent groups by strengthening implementation of DNA marker technologies (for characterising of genes for crop stress responses and response to herbicides, molecular taxonomy of plants, analysing of pathogenic populations, DNA-based GMO and food tracing, marker-assisted selection in fish and fruit breeding programmes, genetic diversity of zooplankton and zoobenthos, molecular characterization of lactic acid bacteria) and introducing innovative, Raman micro-spectroscopy (for chemical analyses and localisation of various chemical compounds in plants and plant products, fish meat, food constituents, new food technology methods such as encapsulation). AREA strategic intellectual property development plan for IP management and innovation capacity building at the Faculty (lead by the 14th AREA team) will ensure that the Faculty’s researchers can deliver sustainable innovative science and future research interactions at both regional and European levels.
