Open-source, interactive database for farmers and foresters goes online

The EU-FarmBook Project has launched an online platform to facilitate knowledge sharing among farmers, foresters, and rural actors in the agriculture and forestry sectors. The platform aims to support the transition to sustainable practices by providing practical solutions to daily challenges.

A pre-launch event introduced the platform to EU project coordinators, policymakers, and agricultural journalists, highlighting its importance and features. Contributions to the platform include practice-oriented materials from EU-funded research projects, covering various topics such as forestry, crop farming, and livestock in multiple languages.

Users can search for information based on their interests and refine their results by resource type, topic, and country. The platform also offers training sessions to assist contributors and promote interoperability with other online platforms.

EU-FarmBook emphasizes the importance of contributors in shaping the platform into a valuable resource for the agricultural and forestry communities in Europe.
