Project description
Novel biodiversity analysis tool brings underutilised agri-food products to the forefront
The EU-funded BIOVALUE project will employ a bottom-up approach to develop the BIOVALUE tool, a dynamic and customisable agri-food value chain biodiversity analysis tool. Researchers will use it to introduce, model, evaluate, breed, produce and spread specifically selected genetically diverse underutilised crops and develop marketable, certified culinary products. By responding to consumer demand to enhance agrobiodiversity in agroecosystems, BIOVALUE will secure the crops' future market performance and their cultivation viability. Moreover, a modelled user-friendly ready-to-work framework will be used to produce a set of key performance indicators for measuring policy quality and impact, environmental evolution and compliance with regulations; the aim is to introduce underutilised, genetically diverse crops to the value chain, which will further enhance biodiversity.
