Bilateral Collaborations

STRATUS, extending over 60 months, aims to connect advisors across Europe to accelerate knowledge creation and sharing on Integrated Fertilisation Management, supporting farmers to bring this knowledge into practice to achieve the ambition of the Farm to Fork and Biodiversity Strategies. Thus, STRATUS will contribute to reducing nutrient losses to the environment while maintaining soil fertility.

Small4Good aims to help small forest owners develop multifunctional management and business models using digital and AI solutions. The project promotes biodiversity and carbon farming through payment for ecosystem services schemes. Its approach involves understanding the motivations of small forest owners and developing business and management models through a multi-actor living lab approach across Europe, promoting rapid prototyping and implementing realistic, locally adapted pathways towards multifunctionality. The project’s outcomes will enable small forest owners across Europe to transition towards sustainable and multifunctional management, creating a fair and inclusive bioeconomy.

ROBOCOOP-EU proposes a breakthrough cultural change in the agricultural sector, by deploying effective regional and circular bio-based Business Models for the valorisation of waste streams from 3 agricultural sectors: grape, olive and stone fruit. The project specialises in the enhancement of revenue streams for small and medium-scale farmers and cooperatives. Its approach involves the systematic diversification of commercial opportunities within agricultural contexts. By establishing versatile bio-refineries, it facilitates the production of a comprehensive portfolio of bio-based products, enabling the integration of secondary streams in a holistic closed-loop system.
