Our story
The CARBON 4 SOIL QUALITY project brings together experts from across the Mediterranean to tackle critical environmental challenges: reducing atmospheric CO2 and improving soil health. Recognizing that these complex issues require collaborative effort, our partnership combines diverse expertise to develop practical, scalable solutions for carbon farming.
The partnership
The CARBON 4 SOIL QUALITY project is a collaboration among leading research institutions and agricultural experts across the Mediterranean.
Our partnership includes:
Agricultural Institute of Slovenia – KIS (SI);
University of Almería – UAL (ES);
Aristotle University of Thessaloniki – AUTH (EL);
Institute for Sustainable Development – ISD (SI);
Ri.nova Cooperative Society – RI.NOVA (IT);
University “Ss Cyril and Methodius” – Institute of Agriculture – IAS (MK);
University of Padova – UNIPD (IT);
University of Montenegro, Biotechnical Faculty – UCG (ME).
As Carbon 4 Soil Quality is a “study” type project, the excellence of the research is extremely important for the success of the project. Therefore, 6 partners are research organisations of EU/national/regional importance and represent an important critical mass of scientific knowledge in the Euro-MED area.
The scientific excellence of the partnership is paired with 2 institutions representing civil society (NGO – ISD) and farmers (SME – RI.NOVA).
