1 Brief description of the scheme (sources - ANR website)

As part of the "Building the European Research Area and International Attractiveness" component of the 2026 Action Plan, the "MRSEI" instrument has been renewed with a continuous submission format involving two selection sessions.

The MRSEI program was created to give scientists working in French laboratories the means to submit a research project as coordinator to European (Horizon Europe) or international collaborative calls, thereby giving them the opportunity to develop ambitious interdisciplinary projects and boost their visibility at international level.

In the context of this call for proposals, only proposals aimed at setting up a European or international scientific network, coordinated by a French team, are expected. These research networks set up under the MRSEI program are required to apply to an ambitious European or international call for projects.

Ecophyto call for expressions of interest (AMI) "Values and acceptability of preventive actions to limit the use of plant protection products in agriculture" - application deadlines via ecophytopic website - stage 1 16 05 2026 at 23:59 - stage 2 23 10 2026 at 23:59

Information source: DRV e-mail of 16 03 2026 at 08:57 to the attention of units

1 Summary description of the system (sources - ecophytopic.fr website)

Scheme description

The aim of the Ecophyto 2030 strategy is to reduce the use, dependence, risks and impacts of plant protection products by supporting stakeholders through the process of change. The Ministries of Ecological Transition, Agriculture, Health, Higher Education and Research, and the Office Français de la Biodiversité (OFB) are launching a call for expressions of interest in research and innovation as part of axis 4 "research, innovation and training" of the Ecophyto 2030 strategy. This call for expressions of interest, with a planned budget of 3.5 million euros, is financed by funds from the diffuse pollution levy earmarked for the Office Français de la Biodiversité (OFB) to support Ecophyto actions.

The aim of this call for expressions of interest (AMI) is to evaluate and highlight the values of preventive actions not using plant protection products (PPPs), compared with the values of curative actions (using PPPs) in agriculture, at relevant spatial and temporal scales, and to identify the technical, social and economic obstacles to their implementation, as well as their genericity or specificity.

Two lines of research are explored by this AMI

• How can we assess the values (agronomic, economic, environmental, social, etc.) of situations involving preventive crop protection actions not using PPPs, compared with the values of situations involving curative actions using synthetic chemistry? Which metrics, which tools, which data in a multi-criteria cost-benefit approach?
• How is preventive action (i.e. without recourse to PPPs) accepted by farmers and other players in value chains, and how can it be made more acceptable? What are the obstacles and levers to their deployment?
  These questions should be based on concrete situations and levers whose agronomic and/or technical, economic, etc. effectiveness has already been tried and tested, or even measured. The specific features of these situations and the associated preventive actions will need to be explained, while taking care to highlight as far as possible aspects of the results that can be transposed beyond specific cases, particularly in terms of methodology, metrics and indicators.
  This call for expressions of interest in research-innovation and research-action is aimed at multidisciplinary scientific communities. The aim is to pursue ongoing or existing work aimed at exploring in depth the issues involved in implementing prophylactic measures.
