Think of soil like a living city where microbes and plants need to work together to keep crops healthy. Right now, too many chemicals are breaking that city apart. This work creates natural 'boosters' and digital maps to help farmers bring the soil back to life and grow more food with fewer sprays.
Farmers are seeing lower crop yields and poorer soil quality due to climate change and the overuse of chemical fertilizers. This creates a financial risk and threatens long-term food security.
The project is creating microbial bioinoculants, biostimulants, digital soil management tools, and a set of agroecological best practices.
If you are a bio-fertilizer manufacturer dealing with the shift away from synthetic chemicals — this project developed microbial bioinoculants and biostimulants that improve soil health and crop resilience.
If you are a software provider dealing with a lack of precise soil data — this project developed digital tools for effective soil health management to help farmers track biodiversity.
If you are a crop producer dealing with declining yields due to climate change — this project developed agroecological methods and best practices validated across 6 diverse European regions to increase productivity.
Based on available project data, specific pricing is not mentioned, but the project aims to assess cost effectiveness during field trials.
Yes, the project is designing strategies for scaling and replicating sustainable practices across 6 different agro-climatic regions in Europe.
Based on available project data, there are no specific details provided regarding patents or licensing agreements.
The project runs from 2025-06-01 to 2029-05-31, meaning results and validated practices will be available by 2029.
The project focuses on the development of digital tools for soil management, though specific technical integration details are not yet listed.
The consortium is well-balanced for commercialization, featuring 21 partners with a 29% industry ratio (6 companies, including 4 SMEs). The mix of 7 universities and 6 research centers ensures a strong scientific foundation, while the presence of partners across 11 countries allows for validation in diverse climates, reducing the risk of regional failure.
