Description
This funding opportunity from the European Commission under Horizon Europe aims to strengthen the capacity to monitor, report, and reduce air pollution originating from agriculture. The grant supports the development and implementation of more accurate, efficient, and user-friendly methodologies and tools (including AI and IoT) for monitoring air pollutants at the farm level (excluding greenhouse gases). Projects are expected to consolidate and expand scientific knowledge on emission factors, mitigation practices, and innovative farming technologies—particularly in manure management, livestock feeding, and fertiliser use. Capacity building, adherence to FAIR data principles, and broad stakeholder engagement are essential components. The initiative aligns with EU policies for zero pollution, biodiversity protection, and sustainable agricultural transition.
