    Producing forage: at what cost?

    Horse grazing - Normandy
    • Charlotte GEYL

    Grass is a high-quality feed that, when available in sufficient quantity, can meet the energy and protein needs of high-demand horses (broodmares, foals). Moreover, it is the least expensive to produce. Therefore, it can help control feed costs in facilities with pasture areas for feeding animals.

    FAIRshare
    • Tom Kelly

    The Standard Product Value Calculator is a digital tool for Hungarian farmers to calculate the gross value of their products, aiding in time-saving and legal acceptance. These calculations are using the National average value of certain crops, animals and other farmed goods. These calculations can help the farmers to save a lot of valueable time and thats why they like it and use it, but for certified calculations they have to check it with an advisor who participated in the trainings.

    Assessing the symbiosis between beekeeping and agricultural production for environmental and socio-
    • Dra. Marina García Llorente

    Se ha diseñado un proyecto de desarrollo de una práctica: conjunción de las actividades apícola y de producción agroecológica para la validación de efectos mutuamente beneficiosos o simbióticos, contemplando un escenario de adaptación al cambio climático y para la Sierra de Madrid. La conjunción de ambas actividades se testará en 3-4 explotaciones y fincas de la Sierra de Madrid, con diferente orientación productiva y mediante el manejo de infraestructuras de diferentes tipos: verdes (composición de aromáticas), colmenares y sociales (tutelaje de la actividad apícola). La efectividad de las actuaciones se medirá mediante la valoración de indicadores seleccionados y validados por un panel de expertos. El proyecto (i) demostrará la viabilidad de la práctica conjunta, (ii) facilitará los indicadores más adecuados para su seguimiento, (iii) fijará las necesidades y condiciones básicas para su factibilidad, (iv) realizará acciones de difusión, promoción y demostración y (v) producirá un informe integral de la situación actual y las medidas de adaptación a un escenario de cambio climático. El informe será facilitado a las instancias implicadas en la adopción de políticas locales para servicios comunes y fijación de población en el medio rural.
