Innovative solutions in agricultural production as a way to increase competitiveness in the market, restore biodiversity and mitigate climate-environmental threats

Description

Innovative solutions in agricultural production

Sector

A1.2Growing of perennial crops

Needs/ Problem statement

The context of the operation results from the need to look for solutions to mitigate climate and environmental threats affecting agriculture, in particular with the deepening lack of water and depletion of soils in organic matter (soil mineralization). An agricultural water crisis is predicted to be imminent, more severe and broader than the current energy crisis.

Objective

The aim of the operation is to develop innovative solutions in the technology of production of natural resistance allowing to maintain the stability and certainty of agricultural production (minimizing climate risks) with crops with health-promoting properties and improving economic efficiency and competitiveness on the market. The project uses various types of biologically activated organic mulches such as: cellulose - \"Carbotera\", wood chips, bark, sawdust, straw, as well as allelopathy and the positive impact of biodiversity to stimulate the natural resistance of the ecosystem

Outcomes and final product

The operation promotes natural ways to increase the efficiency of agricultural production while minimizing the negative effects of weather anomalies. Technologies allowing for the restoration of biodiversity and the natural bioresistance of agroecosystems are indicated. Natural methods were sought to increase the resistance of plants to diseases and pests, as well as to strengthen adaptive capabilities and tolerance to climatic anomalies.
