Biogeco accueille des chercheurs de Skogforsk

Institut forestier suédois

On 17 and 18th September, BIOGECO and UEFP welcomed three Swedish forest tree breeders from the Swedish Forest Institute, Skogforsk (Mats Berlin, Curt Almqvist and Andreas Helmersson). A seminar on drought resistance in forest trees was organized with contributions from Annie Raffin, Victor Papin and Sylvain Delzon followed by a visit of the Caviplace at Bordeaux University. Then, they have visited the Norway spruce trial established by UEFP in 2013 at Antagnac, Lot-et-Garonne (this trial is part of a long transfer trial series with trials in Sweden, Germany and France).
