As a result of the research project to develop a proposal for best available techniques for advanced agrocomposting of beef cattle manure , on May 20th Provacuno will hold a conference in Lorca (Murcia) where different agrocomposting scenarios will be demonstrated in a practical manner and a practical demonstration of the manufacture of complex compost-based pellets will be carried out. The event, which can also be followed online upon registration, is supported by Miguel Hernández University, the CIAGRO Institute for Agri-Food and Agro-Environmental Research and Innovation, the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Climate Farm Demo, JISAP, and Agrobank. The event will begin at 4 p.m. at the Riscal Hotel in Lorca with a presentation by Javier López, director of Provacuno , of the results of the advanced agrocomposting project for beef cattle manure. Next, Raúl Moral, Professor at Miguel Hernández University and expert in waste management, will discuss advanced manure composting and how it can generate better products on the farm. The program will continue with a presentation by Salvador Calvet and Elena Sanchís, from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, on the best available techniques for managing beef cattle manure. After the coffee break, Luciano Orden, from Miguel Hernández University , will present the development of advanced biofertilizers from this Provacuno project, with the subtitle of pelletization as added value, and Matilde Moro, director of Asoprovac , will introduce attendees to the Climate FArm Demo project. At 6:00 p.m., the group will move to the Living Lab at the JISAP Farm (Finca Pajel, Lorca) , where various agrocomposting scenarios will be demonstrated in a hands-on manner, along with a practical demonstration of how to manufacture complex compost-based pellets. The day will conclude at 7:30 p.m. REGISTRATION

Registration for the in-person workshop on precision livestock farming, which will be held on May 21, 2025, at the " iHub La Vega Innova " (in San Fernando de Henares, Madrid), organized by the PAC Network , is open until May 14. The objective is to promote the exchange of experiences between EIP-AGRI Operational Groups , innovative projects, and other stakeholders in rural areas, fostering collaboration, knowledge transfer, and the replication of innovative solutions . Attendance is free, with prior registration, and will include transportation from Atocha. The following operational groups are participating in this event: BOVIEX 4.O : Technological improvement in extensive cattle production in Spain GO BEERISK : New molecular tools for rapid monitoring of honey bee diseases in apiaries in the province of Granada DIAGNOSCORD : Monitoring lamb movement and temperature in a controlled environment to develop algorithms that advance disease diagnosis. SMART FARM : Development of digital twin technologies in different types of pig farms to improve management and production efficiency. SMARTGOAT : improving and digitalizing the goat industry, integrating advanced technologies to optimize goat farm management and improve product traceability. GO Galician Network of Model Farms : a pilot network of farms that will allow for the continuous collection of technical and economic data for monitoring production costs, which are key to ensuring the economic viability of farms. The conference is part of the cycle of exchanges between GGOO EIP-AGRI that RedPAC has designed to take place between May and October 2025. PROGRAM | REGISTRATION
