Estado proyecto 27: On going

Implementation 1 of Phos4Cycle seeks to develop a common strategy and an action plan for the management of phosphates associated with agricultural and livestock activity in rural areas to improve agricultural practices by applying preventive measures to reduce the transfer of forms of phosphorus to the aquatic environment, as well as corrective measures in water masses with a polluting presence. Beneficiary No 4 CPI shall coordinate the joint work of all partners. In addition, the strategy will include specific guidelines for reducing phosphate pollution in different agro-livestock production systems. Each partner will contribute to the definition of guidelines in the systems experienced in each pilot: dairy production (IPC-CALCOB), horticultural production (IPC-CALCOB), irrigated cereal production (ITAGRA), dehesa production (FEDEHESA), permanent woody crop production (DGAG_GR) and poultry production systems (ITAVI), making them more competitive. All these production systems are essential in the economy of the SUDOE area. The Action Plan, jointly developed by the partners to facilitate the adoption of the strategy, will then be adapted by each partner into a roadmap for each territory (WG3).

A medium/long term strategy (from 3 to 8 years) will be jointly developed based on the sharing of the results of our multi-stakeholder group animation work at transnational level. Its main objective will be to guide professionals (landscapers, consultants, public and private buyers, scientists, local development associations, site managers) and decision makers (elected representatives, company managers, etc.) towards the means of action available to them to support the long-term viability of the technical solutions tested during the project (collection, planting and monitoring of local indigenous herbaceous seeds, etc.). This strategy will define realistic objectives (taking into account the constraints of these stakeholders) but ambitious enough to support the development of the proposed solutions. It could be broken down into several action plans, tailored to each type of public concerned and their respective areas of competence. We will identify a number of economic and public policy levers that can support this strategy. To facilitate its implementation, the strategy will be accompanied by a number of resources available in open access: training modules for field workers and decision makers, awareness-raising content, a letter of engagement, feedback from multi-stakeholder groups, etc.

The elaboration of a Strategy and an Action Plan to implement Green Infrastructure (GI) in vineyards of high ecological value in the SUDOE territory will be carried out. This strategy will serve as a guide for the wine sector and authorities interested in improving ecosystem services (ESS) in vineyards, and will become an inspiring model for other regions. The Action Plan will be key to share the results and benefits of the strategy approach. The strategy and action plan aim to promote sustainability and quality in SUDOE vineyards through IV, building on previous knowledge and sharing lessons learned with the sector and local authorities.
