Показать описание
This video presents the H2020 UNISECO project research questions that are relevant for Farm to Fork Strategy.
UNISECO: Understanding and improving the sustainability of agro-ecological farming systems in the EU (H2020)
UNISECO is a 3-year European research project aiming to develop innovative approaches to enhance the understanding of socio-economic and policy drivers and barriers for further development and implementation of agro-ecological practices in EU farming systems.
SAVE THE DATE: UNISECO project Final conference on the 18th and 19th of March 2021.
The challenges of producing enough food and biomass while preserving soil, water and biodiversi-ty cannot be solved only by dominant types of conventional agriculture. Agro-ecological approaches are fundamental for sustainable food production in the future. The key dilemma is how to produce sufficient public goods whilst having viable production of private goods securing economic and social sustainability at a farm level, which is not too dependent on public funds. This dilemma has specific characteristics in different farm systems. UNISECO tackles the challenges of producing public and private goods using agro-ecological approaches which are central to achieving the environmental, climate, social and economic objectives of the F2F Strategy.
Coordinated by the Thünen Institute of Farm Economics (Germany) the consortium comprises research organisations (5 HEIs, 7 research institutes), 3 SMEs, 2 NGOs and 1 organisation representing farmers and land owners across the EU (European Landowner Organisation). UNISECO is characterised by its transdisciplinary nature, with significant experience of partners in co-constructing research with those responsible for policy development and delivery.
Further information can be found on the project's online channels
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement Nr. 773901.
Project duration: 1 May 2018 - 30 April 2021
