Advanced tools for integration and synergistic interconnectIon of microbiomes in resilient food systems
TRIBIOME
Abstract
To reduce the damage to ecosystems and natural biodiversity while also maintaining food production standards, novel solutions are needed to strike a balance. The EU-funded TRIBIOME project will work towards this goal by researching and improving data on soil, human, animal and plant microbiomes, as well as their interconnectivity. From this data, the project will be able to create solutions for reducing the food industry’s resource needs and environmental impact, adopting healthier plant-based food chains and enhancing circularity. To improve their efficiency, a multi-actor approach framework will be created involving stakeholders, policymakers, investors and citizens.
