The "PRO Network” project (2011-2014) has enabled the creation of a national network of trials investigating the effects of agricultural organic waste products (PRO) applications in very different agropedo-climatic situations and for a range of applied PRO. This network was firstly, to harmonize the methods of study and follow-up effects of PRO applied to the field, and secondly to pool data acquired on a wide range of field trials. Have thus been developed: an inventory of 437 tests of PRO in France, an operational methodological guide of field test on the PRO, a method of referencing of the PRO with a first draft of nomenclature, and an information system shared by PRO network and the PRO SOERE. Collected data led to improve the setting of the tools developed within the RMT fertilization & environment (Tools for environmental diagnosis and management of fertilization and the Organic Statute of the soil). Finally, the critical analysis of pooled data sets resulted in recommendations for future trials.
