Dear Susanne,
while developing the mask structures a definition for facility was given:
The technical environment, equipment and infrastructure of high quality value
like laboratories, long term experimental fields, herds and experimental farms
are meant by research facilities. And in our discussions it became clear that
these facilities should be suitable for international cooperation and
comparative trials. - I think this was meant by Hugo mentioning the guidelines
for facilities.
Further we should keep in mind the objective of WP4:
To ensure that all well known research areas of organic food and farming are
coordinated, so there is maximum exchange of research results and sharing of
research facilities, including exchange of experts.
I hope this is helpful to you in addition to Hugos answer.
Best wishes

Dear Hugo,
Thanks for your comments. I will try and reduce the number of entries to the
more meaning full ones.
Can you remind me, where I would find the guidelines for facilities that you
refer to?
All the best

Dear Susanne
I think that it is good that you have a critical eye for what is reported. I
had a quick look at your list, and there may be some redundancies, see comments
in your text. Furthermore, as far as I recall the guidelines, the facilities
should be distinctive and of general interest. Offices, general labs, fields,
greenhouses do not qualify for this, I think. If the greenhouses are to be
included as a facility, for instance, I think the EFRC should provide a
description of their distinctive character and general interest (e.g. organic
prehistory or something like this).
Just a hasty comment,
Hugo

How is this different from Elm Farm above - are these two different facilites?
