The Project presents a cloud of Creativity, Research, Education, Development, Innovation, and Transformation (CREDIT) where the training of the highly-skilled researchers and non-research staff is the priority. Research on the Project is related to the examination and selection of the most favorable genotypes for growing in conditions of sustainable and organic agriculture in order to produce healthy food and protect the environment. It is guided by the idea that Maize Research Institute from Serbia will improve transfer of agro-technology and agro-knowledge and increase number of manageable projects. The main project’s objectives are to transform and access excellence following the scientific and technology roadmaps and thus extend networking and collaboration in the region and Europe Research Area.

Projekat objedinjuje kreativnost, istraživanje, obrazovanje, razvoj, inovacije i transformacije gde je obuka visokokvalifikovanih istraživača i neistraživačkog osoblja prioritet. Istraživanja na Projektu se odnose na ispitivanje i odabir najpovoljnijih genotipova za gajenje u uslovima održive i organske poljoprivrede u cilju proizvodnje zdrave hrane i zaštite životne sredine. Takođe cilj je da Institut za kukuruz Zemun Polje unapredi modele za transfer agrotehnologije i agroznanja i poveća broj projekata kojima će rukovoditi. Za to je potrebno podizanje kapaciteta i izvrsnosti kroz praćenje naučne i tehnološke mape puta i proširenje umrežavanja i saradnje u regionu i Evropskom istraživačkom prostoru.
