The overall objective of FarmBioNet is to promote knowledge exchange and bridge the gap between research and practice in biodiversity-friendly farming, including those relevant to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
The project will identify and support farming practices that enhance biodiversity by providing habitats offering food, safety and shelter. It will establish Farming and Biodiversity National Networks, consisting of farmers, foresters, researchers,
NGOs, advisors, and other relevant Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) actors. These national networks will document biodiversity friendly farming and disseminate knowledge and information.
The project will support farmers to understand how biodiversity-friendly their farm is, and what simple, low-cost actions they can take to enhance biodiversity across their entire farm, while maintaining productivity.
