From the CAP Network, belonging to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, we invite you to attend the CAP Network Day "Soil, Water and Climate: Real Experiences for Resilient Agriculture", which will be held in face-to-face format on 16 and 17 June.
This day, organized in collaboration with El Colletero, will be held on 16 June in Venta Moncalvillo (Daroca de Rioja), where outstanding experiences from different autonomous communities regarding the sustainable management of soil and water natural resources will be presented. Likewise, on 17 June, it will be entirely dedicated to carrying out field visits to relevant farms in the municipalities of Sojuela and Nalda (La Rioja).
The objectives of this day are:
• Publicise profitable, sustainable and innovative agricultural practices that improve soil health, optimise water use and increase the resilience of farms to adverse climatic conditions, facilitating their transfer and adaptation to other territories and production systems.
• Raise awareness of the strategic importance of soil and water as key natural resources for the sustainability of the agricultural sector, highlighting their role in adapting to climate change.
• Promote the exchange of knowledge and networking between farmers, technicians, researchers and administrations, promoting contact networks and alliances that promote the transition to more sustainable agricultural models.
• Publicise the public policy framework and the work carried out by MAPA and the Autonomous Community of La Rioja in the areas of soils, sustainable water management, combating land degradation and promoting carbon sinks.
The registration deadline and the programme for the day will be available shortly, and will be accessible via the
calendar of events on the CAP Network website.
