Between March 16 and 17, the project team of the EU-funded ECOLOOP initiative, in which INDEREN participates, gathered in Valencia for its second consortium meeting, marking a significant milestone one year after the project’s launch. Hosted by the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), the meeting was a pivotal moment for advancing the project’s objectives.
The event featured the kick-off of the deployment and demonstration activities, followed by a visit to one of the pilot fields, Finca Sinyent. Managed by our partner AVA-ASAJA, Finca Sinyent aims to bridge the gap between research and practice by transferring innovative agricultural techniques and findings to local Valencian farmers. Notably, the field will serve as a site for research involving fertilizers as part of ECOLOOP.
In addition to the field visit, UPV showcased some of its key research on soil health, highlighting the progress being made within the ECOLOOP project. The consortium engaged in discussions on several critical topics, including advancing renewable-based agricultural protocols and decision support tools for farmers and foresters, enhancing engagement processes to involve stakeholders more effectively, implementing living labs to foster innovation in agricultural practices, and defining clear communication and dissemination strategies to share findings with broader audiences.
This meeting was instrumental in ensuring that the ECOLOOP project stays on track to meet its milestones for the first reporting period, scheduled for March 2024. With continued collaboration and dedication, the ECOLOOP team is excited to push forward in promoting sustainable agriculture and innovative farming practices.
