RESILCROPS | Harnessing Circular Economy to Improve Crop Resilience in the Atlantic Area

The RESILCROPS project (Harnessing Circular Economy to Improve Crop Resilience in the Atlantic Area) is among the 24 projects approved in the Third Call for Proposals of the Interreg Atlantic Area Programme 2021-2027, a European initiative that promotes transnational cooperation to address shared challenges in the Atlantic Area regions. This European funding, totalling €2.6 million, will enable RESILCROPS to advance its proposal to promote a more resilient and sustainable agricultural model through the use of natural biostimulants derived from algae and microorganisms.

These innovative and sustainable solutions will help protect crops from stress factors such as pests, droughts and extreme temperature changes, while contributing to a circular economy. Furthermore, by addressing the specific challenges of each region, RESILCROPS will enable the Atlantic area to adapt to climate change and ensure a secure and sustainable food supply for the future.
