Agroecological living labs to promote thriving and sustainable agricultural and food systems (AllEcoSys)
Project
Project code: 031B1613
Contract period: 01.05.2025
- 30.04.2028
Budget: 168,952 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Keywords: agroecology, soil health, biodiversity, pest control, disease control
The AllEcoSys project aims to promote sustainable and resilient agricultural systems. To this end, a network of living labs is being set up across Europe. These will facilitate the introduction of agroecological practices for soil health, biodiversity and natural pest and disease control. Through these practices, AllEcoSys aims to support agribusinesses to contribute to sustainable food production and environmental protection. The focus is on the process of co-creation and the combination of traditional and indigenous knowledge with scientific findings. The role of the producers’ expertise and their close cooperation with the research infrastructure is emphasized. Specifically, the aim is to improve soil health and carbon storage and to promote crop diversification. The aim is to make them more resistant to environmental stress, also by strengthening important ecological processes through biological interactions. In addition, AllEcoSys will assess the socio-economic impact of agroecological farming practices, focusing on the drivers, trade-offs and barriers to implementing new practices.
