Introduction:

Res0Pest is a ground-breaking network which studies the effects of pesticide-free cropping systems on pest populations with a particular eye on natural biological regulations. As reported by ENDURE, this initiative is coordinated by INRA-CIRAD. Launched in 2011, Res0Pest identifies technical barriers, tests alternative techniques and gains knowledge on agronomic practices and biological regulation of populations that could improve the management of pests.
