Joint project
ClieNFarms - Climate Neutral Farms
Funder: European Commission; European Union
Period: 2022-2025

Abstract:
Innovative systemic solutions for the agricultural sector
New organisational, technical and financial solutions in agriculture can significantly contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The EU-funded ClieNFarms project will support the European Green Deal by co-developing and upscaling systemic locally relevant solutions to reach climate-neutral and climate-resilient sustainable farms. The project’s operational focus is the case study structure. Specifically, 20 demonstration case studies will test innovative systemic solutions using the latest modelling approaches and multi-criteria assessment tools. These case studies will cover the diversity of production systems (crops, cattle and dairy) as well as geographical areas – from east to west and north to south Europe, plus one in New Zealand. The solutions will be co-designed with farmers and the related ecosystem in a living lab-like structure and recorded in the project’s data hub.
