BRESOV (Breeding for Resilient, Efficient and Sustainable Organic Vegetable production) is a Horizon 2020 project which started in May 2018. FiBL Switzerland is one of 22 project partners and presents the project in a video.

The project BRESOV deals with the urgent need to provide climate-resilient cultivars adapted to organic vegetable production systems. Three crops or crop families are focused on: tomato, beans and brassicas, broccoli in particular. The new cultivars will benefit organic growers, and the organic seed industry, providing much needed security both under current and future scenarios of climate change. FiBL Switzerland leads a work package on multi-location on-farm variety trials. FiBL produced this project video with contributions from the project’s partners to present the objectives, methods and partners of BRESOV. The video gives also an insight in the results of the project after the first three  years.

BRESOV has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
