The institute is among the world leaders in agricultural and food sciences, in plant and animal sciences, and is 11th in the world in ecology and environment. INRAE’s main goal is to be a key player in the transitions necessary to address major global challenges.

  • More specifically, you will be in charge of modeling the relationships between soil management end the ecosystem services provided. Your work will be divided into two tasks
