This funding call under Horizon Europe Cluster 6 focuses on innovative solutions for on-farm post-harvest, storage, and transformation of crops into food and non-food products. Its objective is to empower farmers with technological and digital innovations, fostering sustainability, circular farming, and economic benefits. Proposals should develop scalable, sustainable solutions that align with EU strategies like the European Green Deal, the farm-to-fork strategy, and the common agricultural policy.
The call requires the integration of a multi-actor approach involving stakeholders such as farmers, SMEs, and research institutions. Projects should consider EU regulatory requirements, assess the environmental, social, and economic impacts, and include organic farming systems. A maximum of 30% of the EU funding may be allocated to financial support for third parties, particularly SMEs.
