MI BICYCLE: Mitigation and adaptation through better biomass cycling in crop livestock systems of north and west Europe

Following a competitive tender process at EU level for the ERA-NET Joint Call on Circularity 2021, the Authority wishes to appoint the Contractor to provide the following Research and Development Services: Farms and farming systems in North and Western Europe are generally highly specialised, with little integration between crop and livestock production within farms and between farms within a region. Yet, improved integration, be it at farm or landscape level, offers substantial potential for enhanced circularity of utilization of biomass, especially for co-products (e.g. residues, manure, waste). The main objective of this research project is to co-design locally improved, innovative circular crop and livestock systems in North and Western Europe.
