The aim of Balkan linkage between scientists dealing with vegetable crops:
♦ Cooperation of research programs for more effective exploitation of technical infrastructure/ exchange of know-how and experience
♦ Creation of expertise-diverse groups
♦ Mutual participation in inner and outer project/ dissemination of the knowledge and skills via web etc
♦ Mutual decision making to solve important issues
♦ To protect the rights of scientists in vegetable science
