IPMWORKS Networks will gather networks which are dedicated to farm demonstration and peer-to-peer knowledge exchange and which have recently been established, either at the EU level or at national or local levels, focusing on IPM or on other aspects of farming. For IPM, the identified national networks are the French DEPHY network, the IPM Farm Demo network in Germany, LEAF in the UK, GROEN in the Netherlands, and the recently launched PESTIRED farm-based project in Switzerland.

Besides the already established national networks 21 new hubs will be launched in 14 European countries. These new hubs are divided into 5 sectors and each hub will have 10-15 demo farmers within it. Apart from organising demonstration activities and from contributing to dissemination and communication, they will organise knowledge sharing among farmers and promote co-innovation activities to help farmers design their own IPM strategies.
