From field to future: The impact of living labs
Together with farmers, we are trying legume-cereal intercropping on 180 farms in 9 countries? But what exactly are living labs and how do they contribute to shaping sustainable agriculture?

We recently met in Spain to discuss our progress. Let’s recap our meeting.
Across Europe, our scientists are digging deep into the soil to explore the potential of intercropping for fostering a more sustainable agriculture. Learn more about the samples they are taking and what they are trying to find out.
We recently took part in the dynamic Agro Park agricultural fair, where our Polish partners showcased our commitment to advancing sustainable agriculture through intercropping.
In agriculture, two is better than one: Growing two (or more) crops is a sustainable alternative to monoculture. A new article on CORDIS highlights our goal to raise awareness and improve acceptance for legume-cereal intercropping.
A new article on Illuminem, featuring our project, explains the potential of intercropping to reconcile economic interests and environmental sustainability.
A new article on RealClearScience explains the benefits of intercropping and provides insights into first results from one of our UK field trials.
A European project aims to make agriculture more sustainable and increase food security through legume-cereal intercropping
