TECHONEY’s main objective is to identify strategies and establish lines of resilience to the new challenges determined by the COVID-19 pandemic for beekeepers in the Mediterranean agricultural systems through the implementation, definition, enhancement and transfer of competitive, profitable, effici
Diversified orchards for REsilient and sustAinable Mediterranean farming systems
DREAM will provide Mediterranean growers with a new cultivation approach for fruit production, with the aim to improve small farms’ resilience to climate change (CC), promote biodiversity, reduce waste and pollution as well as economic stability. The DREAM agroecosystem will be characterized by th
Innovative Aquifers Governance for Resilient Water Management and Sustainable Ecosystems in Stressed Mediterranean Agricultural Areas
Aquifers are a critical component of the water cycle, the ecosystems, and the socio-economic systems; especially in the southern shore of the Mediterranean, where water resources are limited and unevenly distributed in space and time. Some countries receive a mere 10% of the local total annual avera
Increasing Resilience of Smallholders with Multi-Platforms Linking Localized Resource Sharing
RESILINK builds resilience through real-time information exchange and generalized & localized resources sharing. It will leverage advanced digital technologies to propose sophisticated but easy to use/affordable solutions adapted to the smallholder communities. In RESILINK, simple, intuitive and mul
Development of eco-sustainable systemic technologies and strategies in key Mediterranean crops systems, contributing to small farming socio-economic resilience.
SUSTEMICROP is a Research and Innovation project that aims to increase the resilience of Mediterranean cropping systems and the competitiveness of small farmers in a climate change-affected environment, through the development of innovative, affordable, and systemic solutions with positive economic,
Innovative sustainable organic sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum L.)-based cropping systems to boost agrobiodiversity, profitability, circularity, and resilience to climate changes in Mediterranean small farms
The project objective deals with the introduction of Mediterranean sea fennel (C. maritimum L) germplasm well adapted to climate change and Mediterranean conditions (water shortage, low soil fertility, high salinity) for the development of new sustainable organic cropping systems, able to increase t
Improving Mediterranean supply chain through innovative agro-food business to strengthen small-scale farmers competitiveness, using prickly pear and fig as case study
