Innovative Farmers is a not-for-profit network that gives farmers research support and funding on their own terms.

This project, part of SOLID, is investigating the potential of integrating bioenergy production from short rotation coppice with dairy systems for alternative feed resources, improved animal welfare, enhanced productivity and environmental benefits.

The study aims to identify and analyse the distribution of added value in the organic supply chain in the European Union.

Growing Resilient Efficient And Thriving Soils
