LegumeLegacy Newsletter October 2024
The latest LegumeLegacy newsletter features updates on the LegumeLegacy training event in Poland, a progress report from Sophia Philadelphi’s field excursion and lab experiment.
What is LegumeLegacy?
LegumeLegacy is an MSCA Doctoral Network. With the European Green Deal, the EU has committed to transition to carbon-neutral and sustainable systems of agriculture. LegumeLegacy aims to adapt existing mixed or ruminant based production systems, using state of the art knowledge from ecology, agronomy, statistics and other fields to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, nutrient inputs and leaching (and costs), while increasing carbon stocks, biodiversity and yield stability. To achieve this, an exceptional and distinctive strategy of LegumeLegacy includes a common experiment across multiple LegumeLegacy sites; 11 Doctoral Researchers will collaborate on the common experiment and have their own distinctive and complementary research objectives.
