Boosting the regional production of nuts and mushrooms as in-demand and healthy sources of protein through knowledge transfer (NuPiWi) (2025-2027)

The objective of the project is to open up opportunities for farms (organic and conventional, with a focus on livestock farms) through the production of nuts and mushrooms as healthy and climate-friendly sources of protein. Target group-orientated, low-threshold and in-depth training courses are offered with a strong regional network. This will achieve both capacity-building on the farms and the consolidation of the training programmes and networking. To this end, a needs analysis is carried out and information events are organised so that interested farms can select the branches of business that are right for them. Practical formats for farms are offered to ensure comprehensive skills acquisition, including one-day seminars, in-depth training courses, excursions, field days and regional group meetings. In addition, the value chain for nut production will be further qualified and strengthened.
