Resumen
Descripción
Food insecurity, poverty, and increasing climate shocks and stresses are persistent issues faced by the agricultural sector. As the world’s population is constantly growing, more innovative approaches and efforts are required to solve these issues, without placing additional pressure on the environment or depleting natural resources. Horticultural production systems integrating advanced technologies can provide an opportunity to grow a wide range of crops with high commercial and nutritional value. However, many developing countries have not as yet begun to apply such technologies to agriculture, or are at the initial stages of their application. Against this background, the project aimed to facilitate the process of promoting the production and consumption of safe and high quality fruit and vegetables at national and international level, in order to address the pressing issues mentioned above.
