Results

This section compiles the results that are being produced in LOWINFOOD intended to have public dissemination: Practice abstracts, Publications in scientific journals and presentations in conferences and Public deliverables

Practice abstracts are short summaries describing main information/recommendations/practices that can serve the endusers in their daily practice, that is, a set of innovative knowledge and easily accessible enduser materials.

A total set of 25 practice abstracts will be released by the end of the project and made public here, as well as on the European Innovation Partnership for Agricultural productivity and Sustainability (EIP-AGRI) website.
