Project: Fostering soil management PRACtices uptake and developing decision support TOols through LIVing labs in EU

Acronym PRAC2LIV
Duration 01/11/2022 - 30/10/2024
Project Topic The project PRAC2LIV will make and evaluate a stock-take of Decision Support Tools (DSTs) that focus on soil organic matter, water retention, and nutrient use efficiency in EJP Member States, building on previous stock-takes and reports. DSTs from simple tools to next generation level support systems will be included and their scientific base, implementation and adoption at farm level assessed. Special attention will be given to web-portal applications. Designs for (mock-up) web-portals and/or dashboards will be discussed in workshop exchanges with stakeholder groups, e.g., living labs, in addition to guidelines derived from the stock-take results. Finally, a tiered approach will be developed for future development of DSTs in agro-systems across EJP Member States.
