Abstract

The 42nd congress of the “Groupe Français des Pesticides” (French Group of Pesticide research–GFP 2012) took place 30 May–1 June at the “École Nationale Supérieure d’Ingénieurs de Poitiers” (ENSIP), a French generalist engineering grande école in Poitiers. Its focus is on the protection of the environment and is part of the University of Poitiers, one of the oldest universities in Europe. GFP is an annual conference where the latest developments in the field of pesticide research are presented. The topics most commonly discussed mainly concern environmental quality, monitoring, fate, and transfer of pesticides in the environment or risks associated with use of pesticides, but every year a key theme sets the tone. For this 42nd edition, the theme “Innovative strategies for plant protection” was retained.
