EIP-AGRI issues the final report of a Workshop on Circular Bioeconomy
Type of post: FLASH NEWS.
Last February, the European Commission
Directorate General for Agriculture and Rural Development and the EIP-AGRI Service
Point organized a workshop on “Opportunities for farm diversification in the
circular bio-economy” in Vilnius (hosted by the Ministry of Agriculture of the
Republic of Lithuania). The event forms part of a continuing exploration of the
opportunities available to farmers and foresters through the circular
bioeconomy and how these opportunities might best be captured. The aim was to
identify, share knowledge of and promote a set of promising co-operation mechanisms
and business models for the circular bioeconomy, allowing for diversification
of economic activities in rural areas, increasing farm income, minimising risk
and enabling a healthier environment. Recently, a report has been issued summarising the findings: EIP-AGRI Workshop - Opportunities for farm diversification in the circular bio-economy.
