News stories 3rd project year (Deliverable 3.5 OK-Net EcoFeed Project)

Summary

The Deliverable D3.5 “News stories 3rd project year” is part of the Horizon 2020 project - OK-Net EcoFeed, Work Package 3 – Coordination of innovation and thematic groups, lead by the Organic Research Centre (ORC). The Deliverable D3.5 reports about key dissemination activities that aim to maximise the uptake of the OK-Net EcoFeed project outcomes at regional and national levels.
The overall aim of OK-Net EcoFeed (Organic Knowledge Network on Monogastric Animal Feed) is to help farmers, breeders and the organic feed processing industry in achieving the goal of 100% use of organic and regional feed for monogastrics, in particular pigs, broilers, laying hens and parents of broilers and laying hens. Within this context, the aim of WP3 is to establish and maintain an environment of exchange/cocreation of knowledge among farmers, business actors, researchers and advisers as a common ground to identify needs, assess new tools and innovations and facilitate exchange. As part of WP3, IFOAM Organics Europe has provided 2 “new stories” per project year, based on the inputs of WP leaders. The Innovation Groups in the project have translated the stories and disseminated them through the most appropriate channels. The present Deliverable D3.5 “News stories 3rd project year” reports of the dissemination activities carried out over the course of the third project year and it is developed by IFOAM Organics Europe.
