Science works — farmers and science working together

The latest article in the University of Groningen's Science for Society series explains how science can make a real contribution to the agricultural transition when it is combined with practical experience. This article focuses on how farmers and researchers are working together to explore new avenues for regenerative agriculture, an approach that combines ecological health and economic prospects and supports farmers in the transition.

The Center for Sustainable Agricultural Transition (CDLT) is establishing a new way of doing science: not from an academic ivory tower, but with farmers in the field and for sustainable impact. By designing, testing, and learning together on the farm, knowledge is created that is directly applicable and contributes to real change.
