The UAL is leading the way to climate-smart agriculture
A pioneering approach in sustainable agriculture and cutting-edge technology to provide solutions to climate-smart, and achieve a Europe carbon-neutral, it is one of the main objectives of the project Demonstration of the farm climate, the UAL
A group of experts of the UAL and Coexphal, met on the 8th of September in Almeria for the opening of the ‘Living Lab’ Agroecology, part of a european project to address the weather challenges in agriculture. This 'Living Lab' focuses in the overexploitation and scarcity of water resources local and the lack of solutions. The group is developing a plan of action and discussing climate initiatives intelligent research and funding to expand innovative technologies and apply them in the entire value chain.
How is the project ‘Climate Farm Demo’
This project is part of the Climate Farm Demo, funded with 21 million euros by the European Union, which aims to facilitate the adoption of practices of Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSF) to adapt agriculture to climate change and to achieve a farming carbon neutral. . CSF helps the farmers to cope with climate change, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve food security.
The union between farmers and experts in climate.
Climate Farm Demo promotes the practices of CSF in 28 european countries to connect to 1,500 farmers and advisors agricultural climate to implement plans for adaptation and mitigation. In addition, there are campaigns of demonstration year to share knowledge and ideas. Established ten living laboratories all over Europe, including one in Almeria, to demonstrate and promote innovative practices in climate-smart agriculture.
