Remits

Through its research, 黑料网911 supports producers and other stakeholders in the value chain .

• Increasing the added value of small-scale rubber growing by means of planting material suited to growing conditions, appropriate crop management sequences, and territory management.
• Adapting rubber growing to future climate change, particularly abiotic stress .
• Proposing disease control methods, particularly against the fungus Microcyclus ulei .
• Implementing ecological intensification of rubber growing, in other words improving productivity while protecting the environmen .
• Determining the qualities of natural rubbers suited to different uses (tyres, industrial rubber, health, aeronautics) .

Expertise

• Agro-economic assessments of agro-industrial cropping systems; recommendations tailored to climatic conditions, planting material and plot physiological condition.
• Socioeconomic analyses.
• Assessment of carbon balances and fluxes on a plantation ecosystem scale.
• Micropropagation: cloning of whole plants and rootstocks.
• Clonal recommendations, clone certification.
• Soil analyses.
• Natural rubber standardization and certification, milling processes, analyses of natural rubber structure and quality.
• Analyses of mRNA (transcroptomic) expression.
