ECHO Horizon Europe Project

It's World Soil Day! 🪴 🌱 Celebrated on December 5th each year, #worldsoilday aims to raise awareness about the importance of healthy soil for food security, biodiversity, and sustainable development, emphasizing the critical role it plays in global ecosystems 🌍 There are over 70,000 different types of soil found around the world, ranging from sandy and loamy to clay and silt. Each type plays a unique role in supporting different ecosystems. Let's take a look beneath our feet and celebrate them all today! #echosoil #soilhealth #missionsoil #projectecho #horizonEU #EUmission

Poland is the largest apple producer in Europe, so all events related to this topic generate great interest 🍎 In Sandomierz - the center of the fruit-growing region - the conference "100 orchards Sandomierz": summary of 3 years of the sustainable apple production project took place. We could not miss it! 🍏 🌱 A lot was said about #soilhealth 🪴 The use of organic matter in the soil was promoted to improve its condition, as well as the importance of microorganisms and the use of humic acids and bacterial products that bind nitrogen from the air. All this to make fruit from Polish orchards healthy and tasty! In the group of participants - fruit growers, representatives of agricultural schools, companies and organizations, Monika Witek presented the ECHO project as well as several ECHO ambassadors from Poland, including Maria Sikorska, journalist, president of the Innovation Leaders association and Miroslaw Korzeniowski from the AGROEKOTON association. We are sure that thanks to this event, we will gain a few new people who will not be afraid to get their hands dirty :) #echosoil #projectecho #missionsoil #EUmission #horizonEU #echoambassador

Today, we welcome Paco García Olmo and the SAGARRAK, Ekologista Taldea environmental association into our ranks! 🪴 Paco and his association answered our call because they recognise that change is impossible without engaging everyone - citizen scientists and regular citizens :) We agree! What also connects us is our passion for sharing knowledge - Sagarrak conducts many awareness campaigns and involves people from various backgrounds. We’re happy to collaborate with you as an association, and as individuals :) 🌱 🌲 Want to follow in Paco’s footsteps?

Meet our newest Ambassador - Alessandro Lo Genco from Italy 🇮🇹 ! As a manager of vineyards, Alessandro is no stranger to the topic of #soilhealth 🪴 In fact, the relationship between soil and wine taste is a fundamental concept in winemaking, shaping the character and quality of the wine produced in a given region. Different soil types, such as clay, sand, limestone, and volcanic ash, contribute distinctive minerals and physical properties that can enhance the flavor profiles of wines. Another great reason to protect our soils! We hope our collaboration will be fruitful 🍇 🍷 Become an ECHO Ambassador! https://lnkd.in/djGtQ7bK #echoambassador #echosoil #missionsoil #EUmission #horizonEU #projectecho
