Cultivating Wisdom:
Agroecology Innovation from Experts in the Field
Manchester
21st October 2024
Collaboration and innovation are key to sustainable growth. That's why AAB, Organic Research Centre (ORC) and Agroecology Research Collaboration (ARC), which includes the Landworkers Alliance (LWA) are thrilled to organise this event dedicated to the benefits of on-farm participatory research.
—
This event is designed to be of interest to farmers seeking to know what research can offer, researchers aiming to connect with farmers or social scientists and economists who wish to better understand to wider societal and financial consequences of the adoption of agroecological practices.
Over the past two years the ARC has explored the potential impacts of on-farm research through the UKRI 'Community Knowledge Fund' project entitled 'Experts in Your Field'.
—
This event explores the specific impact of this project as well as drawing together those farmers, land managers, environmentalists and academics who are excited and/or curious by the potential of on-farm research. This event flips the format of most AAB-events by encouraging farmers to share/present the realities of on-farm research so that researchers can be better informed and both can work together to improve vital on-farm research.
