Unlocking regenerative food systems
We design transformative strategies through a collaborative, dynamic and fit-for-purpose approach.
From science to practice through human connections
We innovate by seeking solutions through multi-actor community engagement. By enabling deep conversations and co-designing practices, we bridge the gap between science and practice. We advance regenerative food systems by developing user-centered tools and methodologies.
Our focus areas
Agroecological farming
We provide our expertise in agronomy, soil science, and microbial ecology to enhance the understanding of the importance of soils.
We promote the development of farming systems that are more in tune with nature, providing social, environmental, and economic benefits for rural populations. We do this by building synergies through innovation projects, fostering collaboration among multiple stakeholders to explore how things can be done differently.
Data science and digital transformation
We design innovative tools to harness data for better decision-making and transform the processes through which we produce and consume food.
Living labs for agro innovation
We strengthen research strategies by involving end-users and fostering societal participation from the project's outset.
Advancing circular economies
By building synergies with multiple stakeholders, we facilitate the development of circular food systems, a better use of available resources, and enhance the effectiveness of results-based carbon markets.
Our projects
CAFAMORE
Creating harmonised data catalogues, standardising baseline methodologies, and testing in seven pilot countries parcel-level monitoring systems and a spatially explicit digital registry for more accurate and reliable carbon certification.
CREDIBLE
Building momentum and trust for the implementation of carbon farming in the EU.
MARVIC
Developing and testing a framework for the design of harmonized, context-specific MRV systems for soil carbon and greenhouse gas balances by agricultural activities.
Farms4Climate
Smart governance and operational tools for agroecological carbon farming.
Listen to Rooted to Earth
Through dialogue with farmers, scientists, researchers, and pioneers who are rethinking our interaction with nature, we highlight their efforts to restore balance to our food systems.
We are building a network of excellence
