Meeting this ambitious goal demands continuous research and innovation in sustainable food production. The CORE Organic Cofund is helping to drive this transition by increasing cooperation between international research activities.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Delivering on the EU\u2019s ambitions for sustainable food production and healthier diets requires more than simply turning over land to organic farming. Developing more sustainable organic food systems means improving farming practices and food processing systems, and creating innovative value chains.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, publicly funded research into organic food systems in Europe is often driven by small research communities, fragmented both geographically and institutionally. To increase the impact of this research, a joint effort is needed. For over a decade, CORE Organic partners have been working to address the most important challenges along the organic value chains through European Research Area Networks.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The CORE Organic Cofund (Coordination of European Transnational Research in Organic Food and Farming Systems Cofund) project network now totals 26 partners from 19 countries. By increasing innovation potential, knowledge accessibility, alignment of national research and international outreach, the partners aim to support the growing demand for organic products, support the development of organic farming regulations, and subsequently boost healthier diets, trade and job creation. Supported projects are also driving increased competitiveness of European agriculture in local and global markets.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Coordinated by Aarhus University in Denmark, the consortium issued a joint call for innovations that could support a sustainable food systems approach and growth of the organic sector in Europe, and overall an increased understanding of the specificities of ecological farming approaches. Twelve projects were awarded a total of \u20ac15 million.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>These include, for example, SureVeg [1], which explores strip-cropping and recycling of waste as the basis for biodiverse and resource-efficient intensive vegetable production, FreeBirds [2],<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>a project to improve chicken health and environmental problems in free-range production, and ProOrg [3], which seeks to develop a Code of Practice for organic food processing.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>With the programme running until May 2022, CORE Organic continues to monitor the funded projects, offering assistance with stakeholder involvement and dissemination in order to secure high impact of the research efforts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-image-container  av-styling-    avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_social_share  avia-align-center '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"  ><div class='avia-image-container-inner'><div class='avia-image-overlay-wrap'><img class='avia_image' src='https:\/\/fei-online.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/03\/organic_farm-773x1030.jpg' alt='' title='organic_farm' height=\"1030\" width=\"773\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='av-social-sharing-box  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_image  avia-builder-el-last  av-social-sharing-box-minimal '><div class='av-share-box'><h5 class='av-share-link-description av-no-toc '>Share this<\/h5><ul class='av-share-box-list noLightbox'><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-facebook' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Facebook\" href='https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/fei-online.com\/core-organic-cofund-nurtures-development-of-organic-sector\/&#038;t=CORE%20Organic%20Cofund%20nurtures%20development%20of%20organic%20sector' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue8f3' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Facebook' rel=\"noopener\"><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-twitter' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Twitter\" href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=CORE%20Organic%20Cofund%20nurtures%20development%20of%20organic%20sector&#038;url=https:\/\/fei-online.com\/?p=10275' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue8f1' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Twitter' rel=\"noopener\"><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-whatsapp' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on WhatsApp\" href='https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/fei-online.com\/core-organic-cofund-nurtures-development-of-organic-sector\/' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\uf232' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on WhatsApp' rel=\"noopener\"><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on WhatsApp<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-linkedin' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on LinkedIn\" href='https:\/\/linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&#038;title=CORE%20Organic%20Cofund%20nurtures%20development%20of%20organic%20sector&#038;url=https:\/\/fei-online.com\/core-organic-cofund-nurtures-development-of-organic-sector\/' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue8fc' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on LinkedIn' rel=\"noopener\"><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-mail' ><a  aria-label=\"Share by Mail\" href='mailto:?subject=CORE%20Organic%20Cofund%20nurtures%20development%20of%20organic%20sector&#038;body=https:\/\/fei-online.com\/core-organic-cofund-nurtures-development-of-organic-sector\/' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue805' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share by Mail'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share by Mail<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/p><\/div><div class=\"flex_column av_one_fifth  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  \" style='border-radius:0px;
