The strategy and objectives of the LIFE-BIODELEAR were shown by Agrocapital.gr on its official website as well as on its social media Facebook page on January 14, 2019.
Among the main objectives of the LIFE-BIODELEAR project is the elimination of insecticide use and the investigation of the effects of conventional and alternative cultivated practices, related to the protection from medfly, on soil fertility and quality.
The up to now obtained results were published in the Integrated Control in Citrus Fruit Crops IOBC-WPRS Bulletin, Vol. 132, 2018 pp. 186-191:

The LIFE-BIODELEAR project participated in the 10th International Symposium of Fruit Files of Economic Importance to be held from 23-27 April 2018, in Tapachula, Chiapas, Mexico.http://www.10isffei.org
The aim of these meetings is to gather scientists, researchers, and those involved in plant protection agencies and phytosanitary operational programs, to share knowledge, technologies and experiences regarding fruit flies.
The symposium program covered all relevant disciplines ranging from basic knowledge to applied research. Ten sessions have been considered:
Life-Biodelear in the “Third FAO/IAEA International Conference on Area-Wide Management of Insect Pests: Integrating the Sterile Insect and Related Nuclear and Other Techniques”
Life-Biodelear project participated in the “Third FAO/IAEA International Conference on Area-Wide Management of Insect Pests: Integrating the Sterile Insect and Related Nuclear and Other Techniques”, which was carried out on 22-26 May 2017 in Vienna, Austria. The title of the presentation was «An environmental friendly new attractant (BIODELEAR) for the mass trapping of Ceratitis capitata».
The strategy, the evolution and the goals of LIFE-BIODELEAR were published in DEMETER magazine,
Issue 17, January-March 2017.
Life-Biodelear project participated in the 9th International Conference on Integrated Fruit Production, which was carried out on 4-8 September 2016 in Thessaloniki, Greece. The title of the presentation was «Mass trapping of Ceratitis capitata using the new attractant BIODELEAR».
According to the so far results, the LIFE program strongly suggest that mass trapping with the new attractant BIODELEAR can effectively control the population of Ceratitis capitata, lower citrus fruit infestation and preserve biodiversity of arthropods.
The project started on June 1st 2014 and was completed on October 25th 2019
