The Horizon 2020 program of research and innovation includes topics that are suitable for international cooperation. This includes cooperation in several projects of sustainable food security (SFS). Project SFS-02 will explore the benefits of species diversity in cropping systems. SFS-06 will research strategies, tools, and technologies for weed management. SFS-09 aims to improve the prevention, early detection, and control of Xylella fastidiosa in hosts and vectors. SFS-11 will develop integrated approaches for the management of important pests and diseases of perennial tropical and sub-tropical crops. SFS-12 will consolidate international research in the area of infectious animal diseases, including zoonoses and parasites, and related issues such as anti-microbial resistance. SFS-14 will improve knowledge of the pathogen-host-environment triangle in the spread of major diseases affecting terrestrial livestock. SFS-24 will reinforce cooperation between Europe and Southeast Asia on sustainable aquaculture. SFS-41 and SFS-42 will support EU-African partnerships on increased productivity and improved innovation systems in African agriculture. SFS-44 and SFS-45 will fund EU research with China on diversified legumes and on transparency of processed agri-food products in China. The deadline for proposals is 17 February 2016.
