Multi-use concept with poplar - EIP project video

The EIP project MUNTER on the Ingweilerhof farm in Rhineland-Palatinate shows that more environmental protection is possible on agricultural land. Fast-growing poplars provide natural water retention here. Over 80 plant species have already established themselves in the stand and provide a habitat for ground beetles and butterflies. The poplar wood is used for sustainable heat generation. This multi-use concept was made possible by the management, which brings farmers and local authorities together.

Final Report on Cross Visits

Document

It summarises the reports from all Cross Visits. During the Cross Visits the AgriSpin team gradually learned how to capture what really matters in the cases that were visited. It is important that the characteristics in the overview are helpful for: ● deepening the understanding of the individual cases and the effect of particular innovation support actions; ● making comparisons between cases, even though they represent different sectors and cover different types of innovation.

The Cross Visit Method - Approach Report on the development and final methodology for the AgriSpin Cross Visits

Document

What can support services do to stimulate innovations at farm level? This is the central question in AgriSpin. The Cross Visits aim at collecting information about innovations that have taken place or that are in progress. The members of the visiting team are predominantly support agents themselves, which allows for vivid exchanges of experiences. A cross visit creates space for intensive informal interactions between colleagues from different corners of Europe. This provides a basis for continuous contacts after the project.
