ICAAM (standing for Institute of Mediterranean Agricultural and Environmental Sciences) is a University of Évora Research and Development (R&D) Unit created in 1991 under the framework of the National Science Program (“Program Ciência”). ICAAM is located on “Campus da Mitra”, an experimental farm covering more than 285 ha in Alentejo (southern Portugal), 12 km from the city of Évora. ICAAM’s main goal is to promote excellence in research on Mediterranean agro-ecosystems, following a multidisciplinary approach (integrating researchers from several scientific areas: Agricultural Engineering, Animal Science, Biology, Crop Science, Physics, Chemistry, Ecology, Economics, Landscape and Territory, Soil Science and Veterinary Medicine) and a strong cooperation with national and international research groups and local producers and professional organizations.
