Que finance cet appel ?
Scope
Projects develop, upscale, pilot and validate biotechnology solutions, particularly those that use the soil microbiome (for example new bio-based fertilisers or microbial inoculants), to remediate, restore and improve soil health under diverse soil, climate and cropping conditions.
Issues to address
- Bioremediation of soils contaminated by heavy metals, pharmaceuticals or PFAS.
- Higher soil organic carbon stocks and better soil structure, supporting soil biodiversity, water retention and nutrient availability.
- Better crop quality and productivity and more sustainable biomass production.
Expected work
- Scalable, cost-effective solutions that apply circular economy principles.
- Assessment of economic, environmental and social impacts, cost-benefit, adoption barriers and market potential, validated with stakeholders such as SMEs, farmers and industry.
- Market-readiness pathways covering regulatory compliance, risk assessment, stakeholder engagement and market acceptance.
- A dedicated task and budget for joint activities with other projects funded under this and related topics.
Expected outcomes
Validated, market-ready biotechnological solutions for soil remediation and soil health that reduce dependence on synthetic chemicals and increase crop resilience and productivity. Activities are expected to reach TRL 5-6 by the end of the project.
