ZeroParasitic is a trans-disciplinary, multi-actor effort to prevent broomrape invasions to Med cropping systems through IPM strategies into a highly innovative framework
A multi-actor approach: Participatory involvement of key stakeholders (e.g. farmers, advisors, and industry). The project entails a detailed examination of the dynamics and interrelationships of actors and additionally explores a variety of opportunities and barriers regarding broomrape parasitism at the molecular and technical level. Specific roles will be assigned to different actors, according to their capacity and commitment, thus incorporating stakeholder practical and informal knowledge against broomrape parasitism (without the use of chemical solutions).
