The PestNu project continues to sow the seeds of innovation and collaboration, with its recent M30 Meeting in Malmö, Sweden, serving as fertile ground for progress and partnership. Among the participants was STRATAGEM, bringing its expertise and dedication to the table.

Hosted over two days from March 13th to 14th, 2024, the M30 Meeting provided a platform for consortium partners to exchange insights and nurture the growth of PestNu’s efforts. Beyond the meeting’s confines, a visit to Kabbarps Trädgård added a hands-on dimension to the experience, immersing participants in the organic cultivation practices of Scandia’s renowned farm growers.

During the meeting, STRATAGEM showcased the progress made within Work Package 6 (WP6): Open Science and Innovation Actions, which leads. Moreover, with the last six months of the project on the horizon, Maria Zafiropoulou, on behalf of the organization, also presented the next steps. These steps aim at optimizing outcomes and refining business plans to amplify the project’s impact and pave the way for sustainable change in the agricultural landscape.

Amidst the agenda-packed days, a visit to Kabbarps Trädgård offered a pleasant closing, allowing participants to witness first-hand the rich mosaic of organic cultivation. Located near Malmö, the farm of Kabbarps Trädgård epitomize a tradition of excellence, where the cultivation of herbs and salads transcends the ordinary, offering a testament to sustainable farming practices.

The M30 Meeting of the PestNu project served as a convergence point for collaboration, innovation, and shared vision.

For STRATAGEM, it was an opportunity to contribute to the project’s journey towards sustainable agricultural solutions while also gaining invaluable insights from esteemed partners.
