GOG is a dynamically growing company and was established in 1998 by the present owners Mr. Manolis Garoufalis and Mr. Nikos Garoufalis.<\/p>\n GOG embraces agricultural land of various ha and about 15000 m2 greenhouse facilities. GOG is applying up-to-date cultivation techniques, modern facilities with technical monitoring and strives for continues improvements through scientific and environmental advice to improve the sustainability of the enterprise in its local environment. As SME, GOG has a head count of 5 full-time employees. The company employs an agronomist graduated from the Agricultural University of Athens and a technologist graduated from the Technological Educational Institute (TEI) of Larissa besides farmworkers.<\/p>\n GOG became a pioneer in the production of orchids, namely of cymbidium species under local climatic conditions, as well as other produce. The cultivation of orchids in Greece takes exclusively place on the island of Samos. GOG has experience in the implementation of services from European agricultural biotech companies to improve its propagation methods and results. GOG aims to improve the deployment of its cultivation methods to achieve optimized utilization of resources as equipment, acreage, water, fertilizer, and manpower in a circular manner from cultivation, production until final disposal. GOG produces for the domestic and foreign markets. GOG is continuously exploring the cultivation of other crops and plants to benefit from the local conditions and give back to the local community. GOG is developing propagation methods for the sustainable production of flour from plant roots and tubers containing glucomannan which powder is consumed in beverages and desserts, as the popular Kahramanmara\u015f<\/a>\u00a0icecream, in Turkey, Greece, and the Levanth. GOG integrated into its business model corporate socio-environmental responsibility. In accordance with the realities of the rapid eradication of native plant species due to the harvesting for salep flour production and ongoing climate change, an integral part of GOG\u2019s mission is the development of such food crops that may be cultivated on Samos island in a sustainable manner, however, still to support local tradition and support local job creation.<\/p>\n GOG holds the appropriate national and local certifications necessary to conduct this project within the premise of GOG and operates in compliance with the requirements of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) in accordance with EU Directive 88\/320\/EEC<\/p>\n __________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n Beneficiary Legal Name: Agricultural Research Institute (ARI<\/strong>) \u2013 Cyprus<\/p>\n Web site: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 www.ari.gov.cy\/<\/p>\n Address:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Address:\u00a0P.O.Box 22016, 1516 Nicosia, Cyprus<\/p>\n Contact Person:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Michalis Omirou<\/p>\n Position:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Researcher<\/p>\n Email:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 michalis.omirou@ari.gov.cy<\/p>\n The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) 50 founded the Agricultural Research Institute (ARI) years ago. Throughout the years, ARI produces high quality research in Agriculture and received a big recognition for its overall contribution when it was declared as a scientific \u201cCenter of Excellence\u201d in 2000, through a competitive FP5 call. Our research group has been heavily involved in environmental microbiology, organic farming, plant breeding and agriculture-climate change related projects. Within this frame, ARI coordinated several research projects regarding the impact of green manures on soil microbial community structure and activity. Moreover, our team leads a strong plant breeding and molecular genetics program, leading to the development of the main cultivated cereal and legume varieties in Cyprus, with emphasis on drought-tolerant crops, like barley and forages. Additionally innovative biotechnologically based approaches are currently under development in order to precisely implement environmental friendly practices. Finally, our work provides authorities and companies with a better basis for decision-making and a powerful competitive edge, based on reduced impact on the environment and wiser management of natural resources.<\/p>\n ARI facilities include 3 main experimental field stations extending across Cyprus, used for in situ agricultural research and plant breeding, as well as modern equipment and laboratory facilities for molecular biology (PCR, qPCR) and microbial ecology as well as microbial inoculation technologies (spray dryer, bioreactors). Plant \u2013 microbe interaction facilities are also available for research (microscopes, controlled conditions walking rooms etc). Plant secondary metabolites and chemical analysis is performed in high quality laboratories equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including mass spectrometry instrumentation (LC-MS\/MS, GC-MS).<\/p>\n ________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n Beneficiary Legal Name: Universit\u00e9 de B\u00e9jaia<\/p>\n Facult\u00e9 des Sciences de la Nature et de la Vie D\u00e9partement des Sciences Alimentaires Laboratoire Biomath\u00e9matiques Biophysique Biochimie et de Scientom\u00e9trie (L3BS<\/strong>) \u2013 Algeria<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong>Web site: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 http:\/\/www.univ-bejaia.dz\/<\/p>\n Address:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Route des Mezaia tergua ouzemmour 06000 B\u00e9jaia Alg\u00e9rie<\/p>\n Contact Person:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Khodir Madani<\/p>\n Position:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Professor<\/p>\n Email:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 khodir.madani@univ-bejaia.dz<\/a>, madani28dz2002@yahoo.fr<\/a><\/p>\n The L3BS team, led by Khodiri Madani (Senior Scientist), belongs to the direction de la Recherche Scientifique et du De\u0301veloppement Technologique, DGRSDT, affiliated to the university of Bejaia (Algeria).
