Years	Projects	Objectives of the different projects
2000–2004	CEBIOCA project (Organic Cereals in the Camargue).	To explore the conditions of developing organic cereals, and to highlight yield variability factors.
2005–2006	Experimentation in farming plots.	To develop new crop management techniques, i.e. techniques to regulate weeds and improve fertilizer management.
