TRANSITION Project

In the #Mediterranean region, variability analysis plays a key role due to the unique climatic and environmental challenges faced by this area. The Mediterranean climate is characterised by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, making agricultural systems particularly sensitive to variability in precipitation, temperature and extreme weather events.  Variability analysis of #EarthObservation indices is valuable for farmers and decision makers: By understanding where and when variability in #vegetation and moisture is increasing, stakeholders can make data-driven decisions to stabilise production and reduce risks from climate variability. By understanding how agroclimatic factors affect #crop variability and health, this data can guide resource allocation, improve water management and ultimately enhance the sustainability of #agriculture in the Mediterranean and other climate-vulnerable regions. More information can be found in #Zenodo. Seasonal RGB composites from Sentinel-2 (2017-2024), presenting detailed, high-resolution satellite imagery for several Mediterranean regions. This dataset includes Catalonia (Spain), Sétif (Algeria), Behia and Kafr Elsheikh governorates (Egypt), Marseille (France) and Sicily (Italy). 🔗 Explore the dataset on Zenodo: https://lnkd.in/dxQv4sR3

🌍🌱 Proud to see the TRANSITION Project, funded by the PRIMA Partnership, participating in #CoP29 to showcase its impactful work on mixed farming models and agroforestry, driving increased resilience to climate change and fostering sustainable agriculture across the Mediterranean region. 🌾✨ #Resilience #ClimateAction #Sustainability #SoilHealth #Agroforestry #PRIMA #CoP29

We are thrilled to share that the TRANSITION Project was invited to participate in the Euro-Mediterranean Economists Association - EMEA- Side Event at COP29, focusing on Financing Agroforestry: Exploring Diverse Financing Schemes for Sustainable Land Use. This event highlighted the critical role of innovative financing mechanisms in supporting agroforestry as a sustainable solution for land use. Agroforestry systems not only enhance biodiversity and improve soil health but also contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation, making them a cornerstone for resilient landscapes.

Nice meeting with stakeholders in #Catalonia to share knowledge and experiences on #agroforestry and mixed farming systems! Applied experience is always the best complement.

The TRANSITION Project is coming to an end! 🌳 🌾 🌍 Its final results will contribute to a better understanding of the role that #agroforestry systems and mixed cropping can play in increasing the resilience of #Mediterranean agroecosystems in the face of #GlobalChange. In this region, the effects of climate change and other environmental pressures make it necessary to transform conventional agricultural practices towards more sustainable models in the long term. #sustainable #agriculture #farming https://lnkd.in/dpA5WxPp

🌍 Clôture réussie pour TRANSITION Project lors de la Semaine de la Forêt Méditerranéenne à Barcelone ! 🌿 Les 5 et 6 novembre, l’Association Française d’Agroforesterie a participé à la 8ème Semaine de la Forêt Méditerranéenne, organisée par la FAO (Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'alimentation et l'agriculture). Le consortium y a présenté, devant un public nombreux, tous les résultats obtenus dans le cadre du projet TRANSITION. 🌱 🤝 Ce projet, rassemblant des partenaires de six pays méditerranéens (Algérie, Égypte, Espagne, France, Italie et Grèce), s’achèvera officiellement le 30 novembre prochain. Pendant 3 ans, il a permis de réaliser des projets de recherche appliquée et des expérimentations de terrain avec les agriculteurs, en parallèle de travaux d’analyse des politiques publiques. 🌳 Les recommandations issues de cette analyse sont présentées dans le White Paper et la Roadmap, conçus pour guider les décideurs vers des pratiques agricoles plus résilientes et durables face aux défis climatiques. Merci à tous ceux qui ont contribué à ce projet ambitieux ! Pour en savoir plus, rendez-vous sur transition-med.org.

El projecte #TRANSITION arriba al seu final! Estem organitzant una trobada de gent interessada en els sistemes agroforestals i l'agricultura mixta a #Vic, a la seu del BETA Technological Center, per a presentar els principals resultats. - Divendres 15 de novembre - 9:00 - 13:30h - Edifici Can Baumann (Ctra de Roda 70, Vic) Inscripcions: transition.info@uvic.cat Us hi esperem!

El pasado 8 de octubre se realizó el tercer webinar de la “Comunidad de sistemas agroforestales y de cultivos mixtos”. Esta comunidad, nacida a raíz del TRANSITION Project en la plataforma Landfiles, ha ido creciendo para crear un espacio de diálogo y de intercambio de ideas entre agricultores. En esta ocasión, se presentaron 3 fincas: - Valentin Maya, con un sistema de dehesa con encina y alcornoque con pastoreo de vacuno. - Martin Casorran, con un sistema agroforestal de plantas aromáticas entre olivos y almendras - Marisa Reig con un programa de pastos para ganado vacuno acorde con la metodología A.

Members of INRAA took part in the launch of the sowing-ploughing campaign at the Korichi lamri collective farm in the commune of Sétif, #Algeria, which was inaugurated by the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, accompanied by the Governor of the province of Sétif, and in the presence of all the civil and military authorities and all the players in the agricultural sector. The theme of this year’s campaign was “Entrepreneurship and research for efficient agriculture”. On this occasion, the INRAA representatives had their own stand to present the research activities and projects carried out by the INRAA in Sétif, in this case the TRANSITION project, of which they gave the Minister a presentation, highlighting the advantages of agroforestry and mixed farming and the importance of the transition to these innovative and resilient systems, particularly in the shadow of the climatic changes that the Mediterranean region, including Algeria, is experiencing.
