🌍 Exciting Progress in the Plooto Project! 🌱 We’re thrilled to share highlights from our recent Plooto Project meeting in Brindisi on July 10-11, 2024. Our team joined colleagues from across the consortium for two days of reviewing achievements and planning next steps. Key discussion points included: 🔹Advancements in our analytics component and its integration with the main Plooto platform 🔹The new architecture of our analytics component and its contributions to enhancing supply chain systems 🔹Ways our innovative solutions can support manufacturers in becoming more sustainable and making informed decisions 🔹Practical applications demonstrated through use cases from our Greek pilot 🔹The impact of our machine learning models for anomaly detection 🔹Goals and plans for the project’s continued development and expansion We also had the opportunity to visit CETMA Composites, getting a firsthand look at their advanced manufacturing processes and facilities. It was fascinating to see how their practices align with our project goals. The Plooto Project aims to deliver a #Circular and #Resilient Information System (#CRIS) that empowers manufacturers in their #green, #digital, and #circular #transition. By enabling waste reduction and end-to-end traceability of Secondary Raw Materials (#SRM), we’re working towards a more #sustainable future. We’re excited to continue driving innovation in circular supply chains. Stay tuned for more updates! #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #Innovation #SupplyChain #GreenTransition #Manufacturing #MachineLearning #Analytics This project has received funding from the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA).

🌱 The Council and European Parliament have reached a provisional agreement on a regulation to establish the first EU-level certification framework for carbon removal, farming, and storage in products. 🌿 This voluntary framework aims to accelerate the deployment of high-quality carbon removal and soil emission reduction activities, bringing us closer to our goal of climate neutrality by 2050. 🚜 🌾 This proposal aligns with the aim of the BEATLES project, focusing on behavioural analysis for a transition to fair, healthy and environmentally friendly food systems and the adoption of Climate-Smart Agriculture. 🔗 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dh_Q9Xqr #HorizonEurope #behaviouralchange #ClimateSmartAgriculture #smartfarming #agriculture Agricultural University of Athens Smart Farming Technology Group - Agricultural University of Athens Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen National & Kapodistrian University of Athens National Technical University of Athens Wageningen University & Research AEIDL (European association for innovation in local development) SEI — Stockholm Environment Institute KPAD LTD - Naturland - Verband für ökologischen Landbau e.V. Sustainable Innovations (SIE) Zveza potrošnikov Slovenije | Slovene Consumers' Association INTIA   Delphy Food & Bio Cluster Denmark AgriFood Lithuania ART21 Q-PLAN INTERNATIONAL

🌿Curious about farming and sustainability working hand in hand? 🌍Together with the leader of Innovation Production Systems (IPSs) 3 & 4, Teagasc, we are showcasing our commitment to sustainable agriculture and innovation in the food industry. 🌱IPS3 highlights the power of intercropping field peas with faba beans, mitigating yield losses while promoting protein extraction. 👩🌾IPS4 uses a systematic engineering approach to monitor nutrient tracking and environmental impacts during product development. It also advocates for new practices in farm-to-shelf nutrient tracking and sustainability.
