Our partner Torta del Casar has begun harvesting the thistle flower Cynara Cardunculus from its first crop sown in an experimental plantation in Extremadura (Spain). The plantation, which began two years ago, has the final objective of reaching 18 hectares to obtain the production volume of vegetable coagulant necessary for cheese production. It is expected to reach 8 hectares this year. Our colleagues highlight the advantages of having its own #thistle plantation, such as the possibility of adapting the plant to sustainable cultivation, defining quality standards for the coagulant and using the plant after harvesting the flowers. In fact, after harvesting the flowers, the thistle stems will be used to obtain #biomass and other extracts as part of SUSTAINEXT project. https://lnkd.in/dTKt4_D2 Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU)

A new report released by SeedChange, our partners in implementing The Bauta Family Initiative, celebrates the diversity of organic and ecological seed across Canada, and the farmers and seed growers who make it possible. From 2021-2023, The Bauta Initiative with funding from AAFC implemented seed demonstration sites across Canada. These sites showcased and evaluated varieties of vegetables and field crops being preserved, adapted, or bred by organic and ecological farmers in Canada. This report titled, "Building Climate-Resilient Seed Systems in Canada" highlights the work of that project. Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/gn7rHusb

The Cooperativa Gallicum, AgroCultívate, Estación Experimental de Aula Dei-CSIC, and OVIARAGÓN have launched the Proyecto Picasso project! 🌾🌱 Proyecto Picasso will focus on tritordeum for its high nutritional value and resilience to droughts and high temperatures. 🌾🔥 Project partners aim to embrace direct seeding over traditional tilling, reduce nitrogen fertilizer and pesticide use, and implement crop rotation with legumes. 🌿 The project will have test fields in Spain (dryland and irrigated) in Ariño (Teruel) and Zuera (Zaragoza). 🌾💧 This cooperative effort is funded by FEADER funds through the Rural Development Program (PDR) of the Government of Aragón! 🌱💰 #cereal #grain #flour #innovation #sustainability #bakery #pasta #malt #lutein #gluten #digestibility #fiber #arabinoxylans #fructans #enzymes #taste #climatechange #nitrogenefficiency #traceability #directseeding #nitrogenreduction #pesticidereduction

A warm welcome to new member Koastal. Koastal, located in Gothenborg Sweden, contributes to the expansion of seaweed cultivation in a special way. They enthuse fishermen to set up, operate and scale seaweed farms during the low season for fishing. To help them, Koastal aggregates and certifies their seaweed production to result in the best product-market fit for large-scale buyers. Founder Samuel Amant and co-founder Trygve Halvard Zierul: 'The seaweed industry is seasonal, and if you only have one high season, then you also only have one source of income. Having all your operations, revenues and risk in such short timeframe makes you very vulnerable as a business. A fisherman is already family with these seasonalities. Our role is to educate them on seeding, monitoring, and harvesting. At the end of the year, we also guarantee payment.’ Koastal believes seaweed is an important solution for a more sustainable future. ‘We need to start using the sea more. If we can grow biomass there in an economically cost-efficient way for all the things we need, that's an important key to the future.'
