Center for Innovation and Business Development

Project aim: Main aim of the Climate Farm Demo project is to accelerate uptake of Climate Smart Solutions for mitigation of negative impact from agriculture towards environment, as European agriculture would become carbon neutral by the 2050.
About the project: Climate Farm Demo is a unique pan-European network of Pilot Demo Farmers (PDFs) covering 28 countries and all pedo-climatic areas. Its overall aim it to accelerate the adoption of Climate Smart Farming (CSF) practices and solutions by farmers and all actors of the Climate Smart Agriculture Knowledge &amp; Innovation Systems (AKIS) with a view of adapting agricultural production systems to climate change and of achieving a carbon neutral agricultural sector by 2050, thereby meeting the targets of the EU Climate strategy. To reach this objective, the project adopts a Multi-Actor approach by connecting 1500 Pilot Demo Farmers and their Climate Farm Advisors (CFAs) at European and national levels to increase knowledge exchange &amp; cross-fertilisation in their respective AKIS. The CFA’s will support the PDF’s in implementing Adaptation and Mitigation Measures suggested by contextualised guidelines and assess &amp; monitor their environmental performance thanks to harmonized methodologies &amp; tools. Technical and social innovations covering a broad range of thematic areas will be demonstrated to the wider farming community across six annual demo-campaigns (4500 demo-events) supporting interactive and peer to peer learning. New and innovative CSF solutions will be co-created in 10 Living Labs spread across Europe and lessons learned from multi-actor innovation will be shared and scaled. A set of public and private rewarding mechanisms will be identified, proposed and demonstrated to the AKIS actors, thus incentivising the uptake of CSF solutions while ensuring sustainable business models. Strategic and operational cooperation is organised with projects, flagship initiatives and policy-makers at European and national levels in order to share knowledge, organize coordinated actions, and produce policy briefs. BioSense Institute significantly contribute to this project by building digital infrastructure, monitoring of project activities, supports in organizing of farm demo events, and by coordinating communication and dissemination activities regarding project results and outcomes at European level.

Climate Farm Demo

Centar za inovacije i razvoj poslovanja

Cilj projekta: Cilj projekta je da se u praksi ubrza usvajanje pametnih rešenja za smanjenje negativnog uticaja poljoprivrede na životnu sredinu, kako bi poljoprivreda Evrope do 2050. godine postala neutralna na emisije ugljenika.
O projektu: Climate Farm Demo je jedinstvena panevropska mreža pilot demonstracionih farmi (PDF) koja pokriva 28 evropskih zemalja i sve pedo-klimatske regije. Glavni cilj je da omogući farmerima i ostalim akterima koji su deo sistema znanja i inovacija u poljoprivredi, usvajanje pametnih klimatskih rešenja u poljoprivredi (Climate Smart Farming). Ta rešenja treba da omoguće prilagođavanje sistema poljoprivredne proizvodnje klimatskim promenama i dostizanje neutralnosti emisije ugljenika ovog privrednog sektora do 2050. godine, kako bi si se ostvarili ciljevi klimatske strategije Evropske Unije. Da bi cilj projekta bio ostvaren, koristi se multiakterski pristup i povezuje 1.500 PDF i njihovih klimatskih savetnika (Climate Farm Advisors) na evropskom i nacionalnom nivou, kako bi se povećala razmena znanja u njihovim sistemima znanja i inovacija (Agriculture Knowledge &amp; Innovation Systems). Klimatski savetnici su u ovom procesu podrška PDF u usvajanju mera prilagođavanja predloženih kroz stručne vodiče i umanjenju uticaja na životnu sredinu. Savetnici prate njihov napredak zahvaljujući ujednačenim metodologijama i alatima. Kroz projekat, tehničke i društvene inovacije, koje pokrivaju širok dijapazon tematskih oblasti, demonstriraju se široj poljoprivrednoj zajednici kroz šest godišnjih kampanja (4.500 demonstracionih događaja), podržavajući interaktivno i vršnjačko učenje (farmeri ka farmerima). Inovativna pametna klimatska rešenja za farmere se zajednički kreiraju u 10 “živih laboratorija” (Living Labs) raspoređenih širom Evrope, i dele sa zajednicom uz naučene lekcije tokom procesa inoviranja. Set javnih i privatnih sistema nagrađivanja biće identifikovan, predložen i demonstriran ključnim akterima, kako bi se podstaklo usvajanje pametnih klimatskih rešenja uz istovremeno osiguravanje održivog poslovanja. Projekat se strateški i operativno povezuje sa drugim projektima, inicijativama i kreatorima regulativa na evropskom i nacionalnom nivou, kako bi se podelilo znanje, organizovale koordinisane akcije i napravile preporuke za regulative. BioSens Institut daje značajan doprinos ovom projektu kroz izgradnju digitalne infrastrukture, praćenje projektnih aktivnosti, podršku pri organizovanju i održavanju demonstracionih događaja, i kroz koordinisanje komunikacije i širenje informacija o rezultatima projekata na evropskom nivou.
