Shared installations for Angevin plant life

The Installations Expérimentales Mutualisées (INEM – shared experimental installations) developed by the IRHS (Institut de Recherche en Horticulture et Semences / institute for research on horticulture and seeds, which brings together Anjou’s top researchers on plant biology) were inaugurated in early November. Located in the heart of the Campus du Végétal, INEM comprises 3000 m² of new greenhouses, cultivation rooms and plastic tunnels (bringing Agrocampus Ouest’s existing equipment up to a total of 7000 m²) with the goal of sharing and rationalising resources while providing a state-of-the-art experimental and educational facility.
