The primary objective of our QLIF-WP333 three-years-long project is to produce scientific data to help farmers in managing soil probiotics, as a way to reduce inputs, production costs, while keeping quality and sustainability of organic and low-input tomato production systems. 2008 Conference paper, poster, etc. NonPeerReviewed rtf http://orgprints.org/11809/1/Baruffa_11809_ed.doc Baruffa, Miss Elisa; Picard, PhD Christine; Sabbioni, Mister Fabio; Petrozza, PhD Angelo; Giovannetti, PhD Giusto and Bosco, Prof Marco (2008) Plant-probiotic microorganisms for a sustainable buffer of input reduction in organic and low-input tomato production systems.
