best4soil provides videos (YouTube), data sheets and 2 databases including decision support tool. The videos, databases and fact sheets are published in 22 official EU languages, to facilitate innovation management for professionals across Europe. Information will be freely accessible to ensure smooth knowledge transfer from research to practice.

Recognizing the role of farmers as innovators, Bovine will build on the reservoir of knowledge that exists at the farm level across the four key related themes of: Socio-economic resilience, animal health; Wellbeing, production efficiency & and meat quality and environmental sustainability.

Collect cutting-edge knowledge ready to be put into practice by "end users" but not yet implemented well. Establish and maintain a knowledge sharing/qualification environment between farmers, business actors, researchers and advisors as a common ground to identify needs, evaluate new tools and innovations and facilitate exchange.

Characterization of 8 target regions to assess the potential of using reclaimed water in agriculture Database of water reuse projects in Europe Fact sheets and practice summaries with successful projects and case studies of water reuse pioneers SWOT analysis and AKIS in each target region as a basis for strategy Participatory workshops with key actors to identify the different points of view an

The main activity of the project is the collection and targeted provision of practice-oriented knowledge for innovative practice-ready nitrogen and phosphorus recovery technologies and products, providing inventory and outcome strategies for priorities. The outputs will be the basis of ~100 practice summaries written in the common EIP-IGRI format and training materials.

The Fertilisation Innovation Network ( FIN) is a technical network based on novel and effective approaches covering the main challenges leading to the creation of a Sustainable Nutrient Management Plan.

Euraknos will increase the compilation of practice-ready knowledge by intensifying the interaction between various agricultural or forestry food networks, thus maximizing results for practitioners. Cross-fertilization will be organized among existing thematic networks spanning different countries, regions and production systems.

In this project, we will develop an integrated approach to combat the main health challenges in fungal production (parasitic fungi and bacteria). By developing a microbiota-enriched casing soil we will reduce the need for pesticides and contribute to improving the productivity, sustainability and profitability of the European mushroom sector.

Net Net Arable worked with 14 farmer innovation groups in 10 countries. Data from the groups showed a wide range of crop yields. This indicates a need, but also a clear possibility for improvements. Based on scientific literature and input from farmers, more than 100 materials with practical solutions have been collected on the Net Net arable knowledge platform (Farmknowledge.org).
