Description du projet
Modèles d’entreprise innovants pour améliorer l’agriculture et la sylviculture européennes
La production primaire dans l’agriculture et la sylviculture est une composante essentielle de la bioéconomie circulaire européenne. Malgré l’importance des producteurs primaires, leur participation à la bioéconomie est limitée et les avantages qui en découlent ne sont pas équitablement répartis tout au long de la chaîne de valeur. Conscient de cette disparité et du rôle central des producteurs primaires, le projet C4B, financé par l’UE, étudiera les chaînes de valeur biosourcées actuelles dans les secteurs de la sylviculture et de l’agriculture, dans le but de formuler des modèles commerciaux innovants et durables. Ces modèles équilibreront la part de pouvoir et de profit dans les nouvelles chaînes de valeur biologiques circulaires et renforceront la coopération entre les producteurs primaires et les autres acteurs clés du secteur. En définitive, C4B prévoit de démontrer l’applicabilité étendue de ces modèles et de stimuler leur adoption par le biais d’un financement par des tiers.
Objectif
Primary production in agriculture and forestry represents an essential part of the European circular bioeconomy. However, the involvement of primary producers in circular bio-based economy is still limited, and the benefits are in most cases not fairly distributed along the value chain, to the disadvantage of primary producers. Fair and sustainable business models that create opportunities for rural entrepreneurship and develop new forms of successful rural business are therefore needed.
The purpose of C4B is to accelerate the development of rural communities and their economic viability by developing new fair and sustainable business models for different agricultural and forestry value chains. C4B business models will be designed to balance the share of power and profits across novel bio-based value chains and to enhance the cooperation among farmers, foresters and industry. This project will advance the understanding of bio-based value chains by carrying out a holistic analysis of different case studies in EU that considers technology, business environment, primary producers’ behaviour, contractual agreements and ownership, and sustainability.
By providing financial support to third parties via Open Call, C4B will demonstrate the applicability, scalability and replicability of the new business models in different business settings and geographical areas, eventually stimulating the uptake of the new business models.
Joining forces with complementary and trans-disciplinary stakeholders from agriculture, forestry and industrial sector, the C4B consortium will define key R&I priorities to be implemented by means of the coming EU funding programmes to support the EU Bioeconomy Strategy, as well policy recommendations to advise Member States for implementing realistic and effective national CAP Strategic Plans that entail bioeconomy interventions.
