  • Best Management Practices
    Conservation Agriculture is the basis of
    agricultural practices implemented within the
    framework of the LIFE Agromitiga project
    These techniques, based on three basic
    principles such as the non-disturbance
    of the soil, soil coverage by plant residues

  • Expected Results
    LIFE Agromitiga will promote a soil management
    system that mitigates climate change. Thanks
    to different actions, the agricultural sector
    will develop a methodology and a tool to assess
