François-Xavier Saintonge head French Forest Health Monitoring Agency northwest inter-pole (DSF), Michel Sottejeau (National Forestry Office) Loiret’s corresponding observer and Aurelien Salle (Orléans University) meet a small delegation of researchers and technicians IRSTEA about OPTMix health monitoring. The target of this morning was twice. First, how to characterize each plot health status and in second time how to establish a specific monitoring during an attack (Erannis defoliaria this year).
French Forest Health Monitoring Agency expressed its expertise and reassured us about the current attack. Differents protocols have been raised and measures were planned.
